UES Cardigan Brown

As many other UES garments, the cardigans tend to run a bit small compared to American sizing. Along with their Japanese sizing, they offer a slim fit, so we suggest going one size up from your regular American size. If you usually wear a size M in American brands, you'll find a good fit with this cardigan in size 3 (L). However, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.

Pascual wears a size 2 (M) cardigan. He is 185cm (6ft 1") tall and weighs 65 kg (143 Lbs). He usually wears a size 38 or 40 in Japanese brands (depending on the brand), as well as a size S in all American brands.

This premium cotton cardigan, proudly crafted by UES in Japan, represents a remarkable milestone for the brand. For the first time ever, UES has ventured into creating this unique piece, and the result has left us truly astounded. It has quickly become one of our favorite additions to the brand's collection.

Made from 100% cotton, this cardigan ensures easy washing and maintenance, providing you with the comfort and durability you need. What sets it apart is its innovative single ridge weave, meticulously designed to stabilize the fabric and prevent excessive stretching with wear. Additionally, a fabric patch has been expertly applied to the back to further enhance its resilience, while the placket buttonholes are reinforced with twilled tape.

Using a low-gauge knitting machine, the single ridge knit fabric boasts prominent ridges on the surface, offering a rich texture achieved with a specially crafted thread that mimics the look of hand-spun yarn. The buttons, made from processed palm nuts, add a unique touch. It's important to note that, being a natural material, these buttons may change color over time and are more susceptible to wear compared to resin buttons. However, their natural texture is undeniably appealing.

With a fabric weight of 11.8oz, this cardigan is not only comfortable but also substantial enough for various occasions. Its introduction has truly exceeded our expectations and earned its place as one of our favorite pieces within the brand's collection.

UES is a small Japanese label founded by Chuji Matsumoto in 1994. UES comes from the English word "Waste", which means that Matsumoto-San wants you to make full use of each garment for as long as possible before discarding it. It is a small judgement of the concept of disposable wear that is so commonplace today in the world of fashion and from which Matsumoto-San disassociates himself completely.
