SAIFUKU -snow country knit- / 226 (Tsutsumu)

A knit brand from Gosen City, Niigata Prefecture, wrapping people and their lives in delightful ingenuity.
"SAIFUKU" is a brand with the concept of "snow country knit," creating knit items inspired by the nature and lifestyle of Niigata, a snowy region. Taking the natural beauty of Niigata as the origin of their designs, they transform the wisdom born from living in a harsh snowy climate into tangible knitwear.

SAIFUKU is crafted by the company of the same name, which has been a specialized knit manufacturer in Gosen City, Niigata Prefecture, since 1963. Blessed with high-quality and abundant water, Gosen City has thrived as a center for silk textiles since the mid-Edo period and developed into a major hub for the knit industry after the war. By promoting their company name as their brand, they continue to refine their knitting techniques and ideas alongside the know-how passed down through the region.

The "226" (Tsutsumu) series, based on the concept of "wrapping people and their lives in knitwear for comfortable and humorous everyday life," is a collection designed to delightfully wrap not just the body, but also the everyday items you use.

From the "Show-off Haramaki" (belly warmer) that lets you enjoy the look of layered outfits, spray covers that fashionably wrap your favorite designer spray bottles, wrist warmers that can be glimpsed from your cuffs as an accent color, to knit collars that warmly wrap around your neck—the collection is full of items featuring fun and ingenious details.

A structure where the belly warmer and pants are integrated.
We use highly stretchable yarn for the entire belly area, providing ample elasticity. It wraps around your stomach with a comfortable fit that isn't too tight.

By supporting from the waist, it achieves a "weightless" feel when worn.
Light and comfortable, it can be used throughout all seasons.

Using the latest "Wholegarment" technology, it is knit in one piece without any seam allowances, so there is no uncomfortable bulkiness, resulting in a beautiful silhouette.
While it is a one-piece knit, the hip area is designed with a bit of extra room. (Please wear it so that the tag sewn on the inside is on your left side.)
