  1. Peter Plotnicki at Merz told me they use hanging loopwheel and he sent this photo of the machines.

    "With the help of a traditional knitwear manufacturer based in the German Swabian Mountains, vintage fashion aï¬cionado Peter Plotnicki revived the "old way of crafting clothes".

    Driven by his passion for traditional fabrication processes, he and the team created a collection garments solely made by 1920s-1950s circular knitting machines. All tops are based on authentic working man's apparel ranging from the ï¬rst decades of the 20th century to army shirts of the sixties — some slightly modiï¬ed, some copied from the original piece down to the last seam.

    Peter Plotnicki sets great store by the label "Made in Germany": the trimming's cotton fabrics, buttons, labels, hangtags, and packaging are German-made.

    High quality traditional products — manufactured in Germany — without compromises!"

  2. Damn hybrid denim jacket, that looks damn heavy for just a shirt, but still keeps the aesthetic look of a shirt. 

     

    Looks quite big in the back, but nice on the shoulders, if he sized down one, you think that would bring it in a bit more at the back, but not constrict shoulders?

  3. My Samurai S5000VX-15th 25oz I got from Yuichi came in today.  I got the one wash version.  I didn't expect them to be so soft.  I'm used to slimmer fits, but i didn't like the rise on the 710s.  I like how these fit with boots, so I think I got a keeper :)  sorry about the crappy pics.

     

     

    They're industrially washed, so they come out pretty soft. How my X-33 came, personally would rather wash em my self, as I like them to be rigid after the wash.
