PHOTOCOPIEU "ZIP HOODIE / PARRIS / BLACK"
A compact-length hoodie.
Made from a fleece material woven on a new, high-performance knitting machine, the exact opposite of loopwheeled fabric.
This new machine allows for more detailed adjustments, resulting in a material that is thick yet light and smooth.
It is usually impossible to use such fine threads on the surface compared to the thickness of the back threads, and this material is only possible thanks to a knitting machine that is the only one of its kind in Wakayama. While seemingly ordinary on the surface, this progressive fabric is noteworthy, and this hoodie is one expression of the desire to wear this fluffy yet smooth material, like cotton, daily.
The hoodie features a shape cut from the body, an evolution of the hood of a Euro vintage anorak, and beautifully crafted metal parts.
Its compact size allows it to be worn under a jacket.
The "Pt" embroidery is a characteristic feature of this series.

ABOUT
For 10 years, I continued to make clothes while considering the way women live in Tokyo and Paris, and PHOTOCOPIEU is the answer to that. The identity is a quiet revolution.
While not consciously a feminist, I have felt stress about the challenges working women face in balancing work and family, and the structure of society, wondering if there isn't a more comfortable way to live.
PHOTOCOPIEU's clothing embodies all the experiences of 10 years of work and private life. I've used my creative power, honed over time, not for fleeting moments like shows or photographs, but to make everyday life more comfortable.
Blends into daily life, yet helps you discover a different side of yourself.
PHOTOCOPIEU's clothing, which combines feminine silhouettes with a strong presence, was born from an empathy for the supple and strong women encountered in Paris.
While meticulously stripping away superficial ornamentation, the lines of the cut are created with the warmth of human hands.
The organic forms, subtly revealing the female body, evoke strong emotions in both the wearer and the observer.
Everyday wear that blends into daily life yet creates an impressive silhouette and pursues comfort,
will gradually become an essential tool for life, embodying the wearer's individuality.
