Lighter and much softer than their ultra heavyweight sweats, they aggressively brush the reverse of the fleece to improve comfort and heat retention. Simple and timeless in its design, this is an incredibly versatile sweater for year-round layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u2028Long sleeved sweater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11oz Japanese\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"glossary_tooltip\" data-title=\"In the 1920’s through to the 1960’s loopwheel fabric was relatively common, but the complexity and almost glacial slowness of production caused the industry to almost disappear and for most of the machines to be scrapped. \u0026lt;br \/\u0026gt;\n\u0026lt;br \/\u0026gt;\nThe loopwheeler machines are actually circular knitting machines that knit “tubes” of fabric, the only tension used in the knitting process is gravity, the end result being a knitted fabric with virtually no inbuilt stress or tension. A loopwheel machine rotates at just 24 revolutions per minute, a modern knitting machine in excess of 10 times that.  Each machine is only able to knit enough fabric for about 8 -10 shirts per day and can only knit a tube of a fixed diameter, so each size finished Tee or Sweat shirt is actually woven on a different sized machine. Apart from the knitted fabric feeling incredibly soft, it also allows shirts or sweats in the smaller sizes to be made with no side seams, because the largest loopwheel machines are actually quite small, larger loopwheel garments have to be made from cut tubes, thus requiring a side seam construction.  Sweats and tee’s made out of loopwheel fabric are necessarily expensive, but look better and last longer than anything else.\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit; border-bottom: 1px dotted rgb(33, 33, 37); color: rgb(33, 33, 37); cursor: help; text-decoration: none;\"\u003eloopwheel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efleece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u2028Brushed reverse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u2028Four button Henley\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"glossary_tooltip\" data-title=\"In modern usage, the term placket often refers to the double layers of fabric that hold the buttons and buttonholes in a shirt.

They consist of separate fibres that will stretch when exposed to tension, i.e. they elongate during the process of being made into cloth (during spinning, weaving, bleaching, dyeing and the various finishing processes, yarns and cloth are under continuous tension).  Some or all of this stretch within the fabric is retained in the post-loom fabric because of friction between the fibres and the yarns.\u0026lt;br \/\u0026gt;\n\u0026lt;br \/\u0026gt;\nThe stretch that occurs can be eliminated when the friction within the fabric is reduced.  This will happen during soaking and\/or washing, where both water and soap act as lubricants.
