BONCOURA LOOPWHEELED FLEECE HOODIES & INDIGO JEANS 

Insanely nice loopwheeled zip-up hoodies from Boncoura are here. These things are heavy, soft, and built like no other loopwheeled sweater we’ve ever carried. They’re that good. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

These Boncoura hoodies are made of a custom developed 20.5oz loopwheeled fleece.  One of their standout features is the hood, designed with a unique structure that naturally stands upright when worn. This thoughtful design keeps the neckline clean and adds a refined touch to an otherwise casual basic hoodie. The silhouette offers just the right amount of room, maintaining a relaxed fit without looking sloppy.  The loopwheel fleece fabric crafted by BONCOURA is made using vintage loopwheel knitting machines. These machines operate slowly and gently, placing minimal stress on the yarn to preserve its natural softness and texture. This meticulous process results in a fabric that is soft, smooth, and full of character, offering a rich and refined hand feel. By avoiding undue tension on the yarn, the fabric retains its shape over years of wear and preserves its unique texture, even after repeated washing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Boncoura's loopwheeled fleece fabric is densely knitted while incorporating air into its structure, a distinctive characteristic of loopwheel knitting. This combination creates exceptional insulation, keeping you warm in colder seasons while delivering unparalleled comfort with its plush feel.  This fleece fabric becomes increasingly supple and develops a unique patina the more it is worn, offering a personal aging process.

We also have fresh production runs of Boncoura's two most popular jeans, the XX straight leg and '66 slighty tapered leg jean.
