I wanted to share with you guys some photos of the new Heavyweight Studio Full Zip that's coming out of production early next week. This is a piece that builds on our best-selling Heavyweight Studio Half Zip. It was requested by a member here shortly after the Half Zip released. From the beginning, I loved the idea (especially as it gave me an outlet for my Squid Game tracksuit obsession). We began formal development on it in July.
Like all of the Heavyweight Studio Collection, it's made of our ultra-premium 27-ounce French Terry. This is the Heavyweight French Terry we developed in house with the goal of balancing weight with comfort. The French Terry uses only premium yarns to create a fabric that is substantial, breathable and pamperingly soft. It features a full length separating Riri zipper that gives you the option of wearing it unzipped or fully zipped. It has two single-welt pockets on the front (replacing the Half Zip's kangaroo pocket) and an inside zipper guard that hides the zipper taper and gives it a super clean look as you're wearing it unzipped.
Full zipped this piece gives me the vibes of a luxurious track jacket/track suit (especially when paired with the Heavyweight Studio Sweatpants 2.0). Unzipped it's elevated and versatile but more casual. It looks great unzipped with the collar folded down or worn up. It works well paired with a pair of a straight leg chinos/cargos or Vintage Field Shorts. Jake (who's been with me since we began expanding beyond t-shirts) says it's hands down his favorite piece we've made.
Here are some shots I took in the bathroom at the factory (please excuse the dirty mirror, I wasn't able to take one home with me).
