- The reverse-type sweatshirt makes its first debut in Sugar & Co.’s 5th anniversary year — a special milestone piece that reflects the brand’s commitment to authentic sportswear heritage.
The fabric is built from a carefully balanced blend of 89% cotton, 8% acrylic, and 3% rayon, faithfully recreating the texture and hand feel of early classic American sportswear. Widely regarded as one of the most well-balanced compositions of that era, this blend delivers softness, durability, and structure in equal measure.
The body fabric, originally knitted vertically, is intentionally used horizontally to improve freedom of movement across the body — a true reverse construction. Action ribs are sewn with a four-needle flat-seamer for strength and flexibility. The body is constructed from a single continuous piece with no shoulder seams, staying true to vintage construction methods.
While the texture, stitching, details, and silhouette remain faithful to original vintage pieces, the sleeve ribs have been refined to a cleaner length to enhance the shoulder-to-arm balance. The hem rib, inspired by authentic vintage cut-off sweatshirts, has been removed and replaced with a rounded double-fold finish sewn with a two-needle construction — creating a lighter, more modern proportion.
The Faded Black color is finished using a special gas pigment dyeing technique, carefully hand-applied by skilled craftsmen in Kojima.This process creates a naturally worn depth and uneven tonal character, making each piece subtly unique and giving the sweatshirt a distinct presence that sets it apart from ordinary black sweatshirts.
