“To be fashionable like you”
Modem design, with a theme of fashion that is not influenced by the times; we are committed to domestic production. Their design are freshness and simple.
1. The Experience:
The architectural upgrade to your favorite hoodie. Modem Design has reimagined the casual pullover by incorporating a technical 1/4 zip neckline, offering a more structured and sophisticated alternative to the standard drawstring hoodie. Crafted in Osaka from a substantial, soft-touch Japanese loopback cotton, this piece provides an immediate sense of "heft" and quality. The rich, earthy brown hue is designed to develop a beautiful depth over time, making it a rugged yet refined anchor for any autumn or winter wardrobe.
2. The Modem Blueprint (Design & Essentials):
-
High-Spec 1/4 Zip Neckline: Features a premium, smooth-gliding Japanese zipper. This allows you to customize your silhouette—wear it zipped up for a clean, funnel-neck look or unzipped over a white tee for a relaxed, layered aesthetic.
-
Mid-Weight Loopback Fleece: Sourced from specialized local mills, the interior features a traditional "looped" texture that traps warmth while remaining highly breathable. It is the perfect weight for standalone wear or under a heavier coat.
-
Structured Hood Design: Unlike flimsy hoods, this version is cut to hold its shape even when the zipper is down, providing a sharp, intentional frame for the face.
-
Ribbed "Shape-Memory" Cuffs & Hem: High-recovery ribbing at the waist and wrists ensures the hoodie retains its boxy, modern fit without sagging over time.
-
Authentic MIJ: 100% Designed and Manufactured in Japan, prioritizing artisanal quality and world-class durability.
3. The Both Style Guide: How to Wear It
The 1/4 zip makes this hoodie significantly more versatile than a standard pullover. Here is how to style it:
-
The "Osaka" Earth-Tone Look: Pair with olive fatigue pants and tan leather boots. The brown-and-green palette is a hallmark of Japanese outdoor-inspired streetwear.
-
The Layered Professional: Wear it over a crisp white button-down shirt. Unzip the hoodie halfway to let the collar peek out. Pair with navy chinos for a look that bridges the gap between casual and "smart."
-
The Monochrome Minimalist: Combine with dark chocolate or black corduroy trousers. The mix of textures (smooth cotton vs. ribbed corduroy) creates a high-end, tonal look that feels very sophisticated.
4. The Both Selection:
-
Functional Sophistication: We selected the 1/4 zip version because it offers more "styling moves" than a basic hoodie. It’s the perfect choice for someone who wants the comfort of a sweatshirt with the look of a designer piece.
-
Small-Batch Dyeing: This specific brown shade is achieved through a controlled dyeing process in Japan, ensuring a deep, consistent color that resists "graying" after multiple washes.
