What it is
The Yawaragi Cotton Zip Hoodie is a full-zip hoodie for men in a smooth, stretchy knit. It sits between a hoodie and a light jacket: soft like the first, clean-lined like the second.
Which size to pick
The cut is relaxed and straight, so most people take their usual size. On our 180cm, 70kg fit model the fit is close, so size up if you want to layer a knit underneath. Sizes run S (US) M (JP) to 2XL (US) 3XL (JP).
The cloth
- Smooth, dense knit with a matte face
- Soft and supple against the skin
- Moderate stretch
- Holds its shape through repeated wear
- Unlined, no fleece
How it compares
A fleece zip hoodie is warmer and bulkier, with ribbed cuffs and hem that read as sportswear. The Yawaragi drops the fleece and the ribbing, so it layers more easily and looks closer to a jacket.
Who it is not for
If you want a heavy, fleece-lined hoodie for cold weather, this is not it. It is made for autumn layering.
Care
Machine wash or hand wash.
Colour
Olive, a muted grey-green.
