    The 10 OZ. SWEATPANTS are the archetypal cotton sweatpants, directly inspired by those first introduced to the market in the 1920s. The loopwheel knitted cotton is a brushed loopback French terry, making it warmer and softer than its unbrushed counterpart. Loopwheel machines, which produce this tubular constructed fabric, are renowned for their slow knitting pace, producing only a single meter of fabric per hour. However, this low thread tension technique sets them apart from contemporary manufacturing methods and creates an exceptional and distinctive fabric.

    The resulting material is reminiscent of hand-woven textiles and possesses a unique stretchy quality and washed look, similar to old American sweatpants that can only be reproduced on a loopwheel knitting machine. These loopwheel pants are knitted in Wakayama, Japan, using extremely rare machines known in Japan as Tsuriami-ki, requiring specialized skill and technique, exclusively for The Real McCoy's.

    Unlike mass-produced sweatpants, The Real McCoy's use different yarns across the layers of the fabric to achieve optimal finish, density, and comfort. Like the best vintage sweatpants, the gusset details featured here have been sewn in. While this is a time-consuming process, it adds a layer of reinforcement and prevents stretching.
