“New” TSURIAMI Sweat Pants BR-25397

"Making a comeback with the iconic BARNS OUTFITTERS fabric"

When talking about the brand BARNS OUTFITTERS, it is impossible to avoid mentioning items made using the "TSURIAMI machine." The soft fabric is slowly knitted using a TSURIAMI machine that has been in use in Wakayama Prefecture for about 100 years, and is characterized by its exquisite tension and comfortable fit that envelops the body. Among them, the “TSURIAMI loop-back sweatshirt” series, a staple for the fall and winter seasons, has remained timelessly popular. Sweatpants crafted from BARNS OUTFITTERS iconic fabric are returning after roughly seven years, now updated with a refreshed design.

"The best casual wear for your daily life"

An original TSURIAMI fabric made with great care from the yarn on. The greatest feature is the coexistence of the softness that can only be achieved by TSURIAMI machine, which slowly knits the fabric while allowing plenty of air in, and the firmness that comes from knitting with a tighter stitch. Sweatpants from BARNS OUTFITTERS’ timeless “TSURIAMI loop-back sweatshirt” series—a staple the brand has been crafting for years—make their return after roughly seven years. With a gently tapered silhouette and soft loopback fabric, they are perfectly suited for everyday wear, making them the ultimate go-to casual piece.

The openings of the side pockets are finished with ribbing, providing extra reinforcement in areas prone to wear.

The waistband features elastic with a drawstring, and the hems are adjustable with drawstrings for a comfortable fit. By adjusting the hem drawstrings, these pants can be styled to match any type of footwear.

The softness of the fabric, born from the ultimate in efficiency, and the texture that improves with wear are unique to the "TSURIAMI machine" and cannot be imitated by any other machine. The loopback lining allows you to wear it for a long period of time from autumn to spring.

"TSURIAMI"

The "hanging knitting machine" was developed about 100 years ago during the Taisho era. The machine is hung from a beam, and the knitted fabric accumulates under the machine under its own weight. Hanging knitting machines, which can only knit about 10 meters of fabric per day, have been eliminated over the years due to their inefficiency, and most of them have been abandoned, leaving only a few, and have switched to sinker knitting machines. In addition, since it is an old machine, it is difficult to maintain and difficult to obtain parts in case of breakdown, so it is a very rare knitting machine that will eventually disappear. However, the unique softness and firmness of the knitted fabric, which slowly incorporates air and minimizes stress on the fabric, are unique features of hanging knitting. BARNS OUTFITTERS has been selling it as a staple for many years.
