The UES Zip Hoodie is a perfect blend of style, comfort, and craftsmanship. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, this hoodie ensures an impeccable fit, accentuating the body with perfection. The sleeves boast an excellent cut, providing a stylish yet comfortable silhouette.
Crafted from a premium heavy 13.5oz sweat fabric, this hoodie stands out for its exceptional quality. Delving deeper, the fabric reveals a unique coloration on the back, achieved through the use of a heather thread. This special thread, though unseen on the front, significantly influences the overall color, ensuring a deep and rich hue.
What sets this hoodie apart is the use of high-cost heather thread for the back, enhancing the color vibrancy. The yarn itself exhibits natural unevenness, a result of using recycled cotton fibers from the spinning process. This gives the fabric a distinctive texture, providing a raw and dry touch that complements casual denim perfectly.
Crafted with precision on an old-fashioned small-body knitting machine, the fabric showcases its individuality through its substantial weight. Despite this thickness, the hoodie is surprisingly lightweight, ensuring optimal comfort. It serves as a reliable companion in cooler temperatures, effectively blocking the wind and keeping you warm. The hood, designed with a pleasing size and shape, contributes to the overall sturdiness of the garment. The fabric's super-soft feel ensures an unmatched level of comfort, making it the ideal choice for those seeking both style and coziness.
The hoodies from UES tend to run a bit small compared to American sizing. Along with their Japanese sizing, they offer a slim fit, so we usually suggest going one size up from your regular American size. If you usually wear a size M in American brands, you'll find a good fit with this hoodie in size 3 (L). However, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.
UES is a small Japanese label founded by Chuji Matsumoto in 1994. UES comes from the English word "Waste", which means that Matsumoto-San wants you to make full use of each garment for as long as possible before discarding it. It is a small judgement of the concept of disposable wear that is so commonplace today in the world of fashion and from which Matsumoto-San disassociates himself completely.
