Created in collaboration with Morishita Meriyasu of Wakayama, one of Japan’s most esteemed knit manufacturers, this is BIG JOHN’s sulfur-dyed sweatshirt. Founded in 1907, the historic factory slowly knits each fabric on traditional loopwheel machines, resulting in a substantial yet remarkably soft texture. The dense weight and airy comfort coexist beautifully, and with every wear, the garment gradually conforms to the body.
The defining feature of this model is its sulfur garment dye. Characterized by rich depth and a subtly muted tone, the color naturally fades with repeated wear and washing. Highlights and shadowing emerge over time, giving the sweatshirt a vintage-inspired appearance unique to each piece. It is truly designed to age gracefully—made to be worn, lived in, and enjoyed for years to come.
Design details include a classic V-insert gusset at the neckline and ribbed side panels that enhance both silhouette and mobility. Sporty yet timeless, it strikes a balance between heritage craftsmanship and modern refinement—an essential heavyweight sweatshirt for the contemporary wardrobe.
