Kosun Knit Vintage Skipper Polo Shirt

Polo shirt that recreates the atmosphere of the 1950s
This simple polo shirt is packed with US-like attention to detail. It features a firm, dry texture produced by BARNS' unique production background, such as heavy-weight fabric knitting in small sizes, flat seaming using U.S. sewing machines, and a round-body body.

The real vintage look is created through repeated trial and error using original dyeing and processing. The thick and sturdy fabric will become more durable as you wear it more and more. This is a piece made slowly and carefully with the idea of "seeking quality over efficiency.Rare knitting machine of which only a few exist in the world

The "small-size knitting machine," an improved version of a knitting machine called a "hanging knitting machine" that existed in the Taisho era (1912-1926), is used. This is a small-diameter knitting machine that matches the size of the girth. Few machines in the world are in operation today, and only a few companies in Japan are operating them.


It is able to knit softly with air while maintaining moderate speed and tension, and its unique tension and firmness are truly a gem. Here is the "answer" to Barnes' pursuit of a dry, American feel.A piece with special details
Old American style functionality and beautiful design is the motif. The size is Japanese standard size, stylish for town use with added casual taste. This is not just a reprint of American vintage style or work items, but an original customization that will capture your heart.

The skipper polo, which eliminates buttons on the front, creates a mature and elegant atmosphere. The three-dimensional collar design, the seamless round body, and the texture of the small-size knitting machine with its high density and firmness all make this a piece with special details.Union Special Flat Seamers
Union Special's Flat Seamer is used for the major stitches. Flat seamer is a stitch that is firmly sewn together with four stitches, and is characterized by its sturdiness to withstand numerous wears and washings. By using a rare machine, of which only a few exist in Japan, a random nep-like fluff is created, giving the garment a unique vintage look.

Stress-free and comfortable fit
The seams are sewn without overlapping each other, and the fabric is flat for stress-free comfort. All sewing and processing is carefully done in Japan, piece by piece, to ensure reliable quality.
