Reverse Weave(R) 2nd Patent Model Crew Neck Sweatshirt TRUE TO ARCHIVES Champion (C3-Q042) Price: 28,600 yen The following is an excerpt from the manufacturer's website: This is a 2nd patent model crew neck sweatshirt that reproduces the "REVERSE WEAVE®" which obtained its second manufacturing patent in 1952. The fabric, which is normally used vertically, is used horizontally to prevent vertical shrinkage. In addition, the "EXPANSION GUSSET" on both sides, which was not present in the 1938 1st model, was introduced to reduce the effects of horizontal shrinkage and allow for ease of movement. This improvement led to the acquisition of the second manufacturing patent. Details such as the "Tatakitag" (tacked tag) with sewn-in ends and the collar name that faithfully reproduces the "REVERSE WEAVE®" and "EXPANSION GUSSET" patent numbers are also included. Furthermore, the absence of the C logo patch on the left sleeve is also exactly as it was at the time.
