Fleece fabric thinned to the level of jersey

ESSIE is a slightly different cardigan with rope instead of buttons. It's a unique fabric that releases easily from the skin and can be worn easily, making it perfect for midsummer air conditioning and sun protection. This cardigan is made of a special material that is thin like jersey but is actually fleece, making it easy to wear even in the summer.

Tie the rope

Cardigan ESSIE flutters in the wind. In fact, this fabric is the "fleece fleece" often seen in sweatshirts. The material is called extra mini fleece, and at first glance it's so light and thin that you wouldn't think it's fleece, but when you look at the back of the fabric, the tiny loops are proof that it's fleece. The fleece is made from thin threads that are as thin as jersey jersey, making it extremely light and comfortable to wear.

The fleece has a unique elasticity that makes it feel like you're wearing a hoodie from another dimension, and it feels comfortable against your skin, making it recommended as a layer for chilly to sweaty seasons. The length is slightly short and it is lightweight and comfortable.

It has no buttons, so you can easily put it on to protect yourself from the sun. It has a sporty casual feel that is unique to fleece, and is also recommended for light exercise such as walking. The rope string at the neck can be left hanging, or you can tie it for peace of mind on windy days or days when you are active.

A factory brand aiming for the highest quality cut and sew products

The brand name FilMelange is a coined word that means "mixed color (Melange) thread (Fil)". It means colors that blend together beautifully, like the heathered pattern on old-fashioned T-shirts and sweatshirts. Based on the premise of using carefully selected natural materials, we carry out thorough in-house development, from the selection of the raw material ``cotton'' to the ``thread,'' ``fabric,'' and ``sewing.'' In addition to being comfortable to wear, we also actively use organic materials out of consideration for the environment. We place absolute trust in Japan's excellent craftsmen who value careful work, and we are committed to making products made in Japan in order to pass on their techniques. With this "origin" in mind, they continue to create the "top-of-the-line cut and sew products" with ideas as simple as possible. Based on this, we create products that pursue the meaning and joy of wearing clothes.
