The search for the ‘perfect’ grey sweat is journey that many of you, like me, have embarked on. And whether you’ve completed that search already or you’re still looking, Orslow is offering up a tantalising option..

This Loopwheel Crewneck Sweatshirt in heather gray comes from the Japanese powerhouse known for its perfected reproductions of 20th century work and athletic wear. The name alone tells you most of what you need to know, this guy is made in Japan from 100% cotton, and using a loopwheeled cotton, eliminating a lot of shrinkage whilst also guaranteeing shape retention for the duration of its lifespan. Raglan sleeves ensure a relaxed fit with the ribbed sleeves and hem adding structure and durability. The contrast stitch really elevates this wardrobe staple and branding is kept to an absolute minimum with just an interior neck label, keeping things clean.
