{The Rite Stuff} Heavyweight 9 oz. Loopwheel Tee (Ecru)

Discover the Heavyweight 9 oz. Loopwheel Tee and experience the unbeatable quality of tubeknit fabric crafted in Wakayama, Japan. Its unique combination of thickness and incredible softness makes it perfect for standalone wear or layering. The unbleached cotton used in the ecru version contains natural brown flecks, which are actually remnants of the cotton plant embedded in the shirt’s fibers. Loopwheel fabric is knitted without any tension, resulting in a remarkably soft yet durable material—considered among the finest T-shirt fabrics available today. With only three loopwheel manufacturing operations remaining globally, and the antique machines requiring expert care and maintenance, preserving this tradition is truly a labor of love. Our Heavyweight Loopwheel Tees are meticulously sewn in Japan with all-cotton thread, tags woven in Japan, and hang tags and stickers produced in the USA. And they’re produced in collaboration with John Lofgren & Co. up to their standards of quality
