KEPANI
Founded in 2006, KEPANI is a Japanese brand specializing in sweatshirts. The brand is known for its unique yarns and production methods, offering a range of products including fleece sweatshirts, sweatshirts, jackets, and accessories like gloves.







Soft and Comfortable Texture
The fabric, known for its comfort, uses KEPANI's signature "Lafie Sweat" in a T-shirt-friendly thickness. The knitted fabric undergoes a tumbler process to shrink it quickly, adding resilience and elasticity, ensuring the shirt retains its shape even after washing.





Enjoy the Aging Process
The unique heathered look of the fabric allows it to age beautifully with repeated washing, with the black threads fading to create a personalized vintage look over time.





Sportswear-Inspired Details
The neckline is a moderately fitted crew neck. The sleeves are attached using a freedom sleeve design that allows for greater mobility and comfort in the shoulder area.



The curved seams, which add a distinctive touch, are inspired by sports like tennis and other ball games that require a wide range of arm movement. This design was commonly seen from the late 1930s to the 1940s and is now a rare vintage detail due to its high production cost and low efficiency.







Featuring a versatile silhouette that's neither too tight nor too loose, the shirt offers a relaxed fit with just the right amount of room. It maintains a balanced length even when sized up, making it suitable for various occasions and styles.
