The Sashiko Sunfaded Hoodie takes its inspiration from sashiko, the traditional Japanese repair stitching used to strengthen and mend worn fabric. UNKNOWN FORM blends that heritage detail with a modern heavyweight build, adding reinforced stitchwork and distressing throughout so each piece feels one of a kind rather than mass produced. It is a hoodie with character, made to look better the more you wear it.

It is crafted from a heavyweight 100% cotton French terry and finished with a custom sunfaded wash for a naturally worn-in look straight out of the bag. Ribbed cuffs and hem keep the shape clean, while the relaxed, slightly oversized body sits over a slightly cropped length. It fits true to size, so take your usual size for the intended look. Pair it with wide-leg denim or cargos to let the stitchwork stand out.

To protect the stitching and the fade, hand wash or machine wash cold and hang dry. Do not tumble dry or use heat drying, as this can cause shrinkage or damage the stitchwork.
