Wonder Looper
-
@Chibs Thanks! This is really helpful. I'm definitely gonna size down then. The all sumi set looks great. I was initially gonna grab a couple of sweatpants in the fleeced foxfibre when they drop but now I'm thinking about grabbing at least a pair in the double heavyweight. I have superlooper sweatpants and love them so definitely want to try the other fabrics/weights.
-
@Nobunaga happy to help. The souperlooper feel closer in weight to regular joggers. The Double heavyweight feel waaaaay heavier in such a good way. Definitely recommend trying a pair.
-
@Pointman yeah man - I visited about a year ago. It was great. It’s definitely an office / stock room kind of space, but there’s tons of stock to check out and hear about projects in the works. Bahzad and Risa are both great and made it a really enjoyable experience. I’ll definitely go back next time I go to Japan.

Grabbed the Burgundy. Regretted not getting the Superlooper Burgundy last time and was wondering about waiting for next spring when I think Burgundy returns but all this talk of Double Heavyweight and the way it drapes better made me think I need to jump on this one. I am blaming @Chibs @CosmoSix5 and the IH forum more generally.

@will6er any time friend!
-
These new releases are killing me. Another WL on the way. James Dant has had the new double heavyweight loopwheel live since noon.

@WithBongInHand me nabbed a sumi black hoodie
-
@CosmoSix5 nice! This is my first hoodie from them so I’m pretty jazzed. I own 3 double heavyweight t’s that I really love.

I made it out to the Yokohama showroom a few days ago. @americanathreads, you are correct. Bahzad and Risa were both super warm, welcoming and excited about what they’re doing. I picked up a few shirts. Tried on a hoodie but I live in Texas and they’re mostly overkill for my climate. Got to try some upcoming stuff and hear about other things. I spent way more time chitchatting with them about life and industry than I did shopping. If you’re interested in WL or just curious about some quality T-shirts, well worth arranging a visit. Also, don’t sleep on Yokohama. Seaside town that’s basically a seaside suburb of Tokyo where people go for the weekend. It’s great. Spend the day there or longer. Didn’t take any pics. Sorry.

@WithBongInHand nice that's my favorite color from them, though sumi is always safe but interesting at same time. And imo they really nailed the purple super looper.
-
Grabbed a Double Hwt french terry Sumi pullover to see what all the hype is about. Sized down cause they look big,
-
@moskiitto 100% nailed that purple. Best shade of purple!! Only regret is not buying the pullover hoodie in that colour. I got the sweatpants and zip up hoodie though.
@Denimhead-0 The hype is real. Which colour did you pick?

-
@Chibs Black
-
@moskiitto Good to hear
-
@Chibs Ended up grabbing the sweatpants in sumi. Found them for a good price. Waiting on the sumi zip.

Did they just restock Super Looper recently? Looks like it’s not listed in the future restock section on their site, and some retailers still have some big and small sizes. I figure it must be the case.
I’m super intrigued by the double heavyweight and am feeling a very itchy trigger finger, but I’m afraid I’d just roast in it. Owners — is it nice and warm, or really f’n hot?

@popvulture Super Looper is a SS release. What you’re seeing is the few leftovers. I suspect they will restock in the spring. Likely with a few new colors!
-
@WithBongInHand thank you! I might just wait til spring then. Or might not
Does anybody in the thread own any Andersen Andersen stuff? I have the heaviest gauge option in both, and they’re toasty as hell, especially the AA. Is the double heavyweight warmer than that? I think it’d be a no for me if so.
That fabric looks so awesome. I wanna make it work haha…
