Why is BIG WAFFLE so special?
01|Waffle knitting that transcends time
Waffle knitting has its roots in Western thermal wear.
A structure that "embraces air" was created to prevent body heat from escaping in cold regions.
The lattice-like unevenness was not a decoration, but an inevitable form derived from function.
SEAGREENThe aim was to make this traditional knitted fabric more modern and of higher quality.
The answer I arrived at was
The idea was to design the stitches to be one size larger.
The brand's iconic material has been available throughout the year since its launch in the spring/summer of 2015.
Even now, it still attracts a lot of support.SEAGREENThis is a standard fabric.
Its distinctive feature is the waffle eyes that stand up.
The impressive unevenness cannot be created simply by blending.
Unique structure that knits by switching between cotton thread and polyester thread.
The surface has the natural texture of cotton, and the back has polyester thread to support the unevenness from the inside.
Polyester is not only lightweight;
It is designed to maintain a three-dimensional feel that prevents it from crushing even with large waffles.
Furthermore, this structure allows for different dyeing.
The different threads create depth in the colors, creating a rich expression with shadows even with a single color.
The large irregularities with little surface contact with the skin make it feel as if it contains air.
Contrary to its strong appearance, it is a light material that can be worn in spring and summer.
It's relaxed yet classy.
That is the essence of BIG WAFFLE (ONI WAFFLE).
02|Beauty that lasts over time
The appeal of BIG WAFFLE is not just the moment it is completed.
