- The Dubble Works Stand Wheeler Heavyweight T-Shirt is one of the brand's most iconic and longest-running products. Despite its substantial weight and rugged appearance, it has earned a loyal following through its unique balance of durability, comfort, and everyday wearability.
At the heart of the T-shirt is Dubble Works' specially developed Stand Wheeler jersey fabric. The fabric is knitted in Wakayama on a customized vintage circular knitting machine known as the "Stand Wheeler." Originally modified by skilled craftsmen to handle exceptionally thick yarns, the machine is capable of knitting No.8 count yarns — more than twice the thickness commonly found in standard T-shirt jersey fabrics. Producing a fabric of this density requires both specialized machinery and experienced craftsmen, making the process increasingly rare today.
Despite its heavyweight, high-density construction, the jersey retains a small amount of natural stretch within the knit structure, resulting in a surprisingly soft touch and comfortable feel. The combination of exceptionally thick yarns, vintage machinery, and specialized knitting techniques creates a distinctive fabric with a character all its own. It is a jersey that perfectly represents the Dubble Works philosophy — durable, comfortable, and built for everyday wear.
- Tips - A Note on Japanese Vintage Knitting Machines
Wakayama is known as the heart of Japan's knitting industry and home to a variety of vintage knitting machines, including Loopwheel, Stand Wheeler, Sinker, and Azuma machines. Each machine produces fabrics with its own unique texture, density, stretch, and character.
The Stand Wheeler fabric used by Dubble Works is one such example, offering a distinctive feel that reflects both the machine itself and the craftsmanship behind it.
