Dotsume Cardigan - 77 Sumikuro

Jackman - Dotsume Cardigan - 77 Sumikuro

Dotsume has been good to us over the past 2 years because it's so versatile. From tees to sweatshirts, its knotted weaving is sturdy enough to work for so many different silhouttes. This was the first time we'd seen the cardigan in person, and it suited the fabric perfectly. It's just heavy enough to let you know it's there but by no means a wool-weight cardigan. They've given it that modern touch with black coated snaps vs. the traditional button cardigan. We love a good layering piece, and this is exactly that. 

This cardigan is made from 20/7 cotton from the United States using a loop knitting machine and knitted to the maximum density over time. By knitting slowly with a loop knitting machine, the stitches are evenly distributed and will not shrink or warp even after repeated wear and washing. The design has a relaxed design with a strong drop shoulder and is sewn by skilled craftsmen using accumulated techniques to create a floating collar and silhouette when worn with the front open. This cardigan gives off an elegant look when you put your hand in your pocket.

• 100% Cotton

• Produced in Jackman factory in Fukui prefecture

A variance of .5" is within tolerance. 

Fit Notes: Most people consider Jackman to fit small. We don't usually find that to be true with their garments, but we still size up once. Tommy is wearing a large in the pictures. We only recommend doing this if you want a roomier, more comfy fit. Tommy is 5’10,” 175lbs with a 40” chest, and typically wears a Japanese large.
