UES Zip Parka Black

This new UES zip hoodie is simply perfect. The fit in the body is perfect. The arms are just about excellent. Even though the fabric is thick, it’s surprisingly light, but it will keep you warm when the temperature falls; it does a great job blocking the wind. The hood is a nice size and shape and feels sturdy. Overall it’s super comfortable. The fabric is super soft, so if you’re looking to be comfy upright, there is no better option than this.

This black thick sweat fabric is outstanding. If you look at the back of the fabric, you can see that it is coloured. This is because the back thread is not a regular thread but a heather thread. The back thread does not appear on the front, but it actually affects the colour of the front to a considerable extent. The high-cost heather thread is used for the back thread to give a deep colour.

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.
