The most convenient piece of clothing: "WORKERS Relax Cardigan"
Hello everyone, good morning or good evening, this is Ichimura from Mr.OLDMAN.
I went into the city for buying yesterday, despite the rain.
I go every week, so reporting it on the blog starts to feel a bit repetitive, but I make the rounds every single week to source great products (lol).
The photo shows the new collection from LAMOND for next year.
They were a big hit this season, but I think I’ll be able to introduce even more powered-up items next year, so please look forward to it.
Alright then, let’s get straight to the point today.
Our September new arrivals have arrived from WORKERS in Okayama.
Since they arrive all at once once a month, this isn’t everything, but this Relax Cardigan that I’ve been looking forward to is so good that I’m focusing solely on it today.
The "looks like a sweater but is actually cotton" cut-and-sew that arrives every year at this time and becomes a huge hit has been released this year as a new cardigan.
The body is made of extra-heavy jersey fabric. While the knitting method is the same as a T-shirt, by feeding multiple extra-thick yarns into the knitting needles, it achieves a thickness like a low-gauge sweater.
There is no brushing, so you can wear it right away starting in weather like we’re having today.
It has a substantial, heavy feel and a textured fabric, which I’m sure many of you will love.
With this thickness and sturdiness, there’s no worry about it stretching out, and you can wash and wear it hard without having to be too careful.
I’ve always thought that shirts are the best things for layering, but this cardigan is such a fantastic piece of work that it rivals even my favorite shirts.
Beyond the fabric, I also love the cocoon silhouette that tapers toward the hem.
Because there is no ribbing at the hem, it doesn't look tight, yet it still maintains an exquisite balance without looking like an oversized piece.
Even though there is no hem ribbing, the sleeves are tapered to a subtle, refined width, so they stop perfectly at your wrists.
Everything is carefully calculated down to the smallest detail, resulting in a highly perfected cardigan that is quintessentially WORKERS.
For many, elegant wool models can be uncomfortable to wear and a hassle to care for.
On the other hand, a 50s-style casual sweatshirt cardigan can feel a bit too childish.
This is exactly the kind of "I wish I had something like this!" cardigan that solves those problems.
It has a relaxed width but isn't too long in the body.
Because it tapers toward the hem, it doesn't look childish.
And the balance of the exquisitely slim cuffs is perfect!
You can wear this heavily starting now, and when it gets colder, simply layer a jacket over it and you’re good to go.
People who saw our Instagram have already come by the store to pick one up.
This is a masterpiece that you'll definitely want to get your hands on.
As always with WORKERS, there will be no restocks, so please consider getting yours early.
See you then!
