Men's sweatshirt 1965

This sporty, no-frills hoodie has a wide and comfortable cut, just as it was popular in the mid-1960s. Raglan sleeves make it even more comfortable to wear. The fabric is smooth on the outside and soft on the inside, making it feel pleasant against the skin. With its 500 g/sqm fabric weight, it makes the hoodie an ideal garment for the transitional period in spring and fall. There is a classic kangaroo pocket on the front. Rib-knit cuffs form the finish on the sleeves and body. The hood has a drawstring and is lined on the inside with a fabric with a plastic waffle texture.

The Pike Brothers label from Bad Feilnbach in Upper Bavaria proves with garments inspired by textiles from the world of workwear that form and functionality are not mutually exclusive. While creative minds in other companies have to work out their cuts, the Pike Brothers collect, dissect and finally reconstruct historical originals from a wide variety of workspaces. Different material requirements and cuts are taken into account on a one-for-one basis. Fabrics are reissued in collaboration with traditional weaving mills. Finally, the Pike Brothers have the garments made by hand from selected European tailors. The resulting products tell a story by dint of their appearance. Moreover, they are proving themselves in practice, just like their historical role models did, to be highly functional and to offer the highest comfort – no matter what the activity.
