Thank you for always visiting us.
Today, from the D.HYGEN 26SS collection available at FASCINATE D.HYGEN, we introduce an inkjet-printed D HYGEN hoodie jacket from D.HYGEN.

In recent years, D.HYGEN has strengthened its stance not by raising a specific theme, but by examining its own past works and seeking new expressions from them.
This hoodie jacket is precisely an embodiment of that attitude, finished as a piece that betrays the comfort of the standard in a good way.

The Expression of Inkjet Print Elevating Rust to Art

The face of this season is this powerful graphic.
It was created taking inspiration from the texture of rust the designer witnessed at visited factories and workshops.

The Depth of Color and Visual Effects Differing Between Navy and Black

The color variations are Navy and Black. A different character is given to each.

Navy is based on a blue that retains a vividness rare for the brand.
By intermingling dark beige, brown, and even a bleached-like gray, it produces a complex and profound expression.
What is fascinating is that while being decadent, it also harbors a lightness that blends with the atmosphere of spring and summer.

Black, on the other hand, is not merely black. In reality, it adopts a low-contrast color scheme where dark green and gray are exquisitely mixed.
While possessing a composure close to monotone, the shading of the graphic emerging depending on the light firmly asserts the profound atmosphere typical of D.HYGEN.

The Historical Interpretation of the D HYGEN Hoodie and the Position of this Work

For those who have observed the brand D.HYGEN for a long time, the item of a hoodie must hold a special meaning.
In past collections, tight and solid hoodies that seemed to constrict the body, using heavy leather and hard materials, were exactly the brand's synonymous items and existed as a kind of armor.

However, this piece steps into a new phase by breaking down its own strong standard image.
Examining past archives, how to express the brand's identity in a vector different from the weight and tightness of those days.
This oversized D HYGEN hoodie can be said to be an item in a very important position symbolizing such changes and evolution of the brand itself.

Resolving the Contradiction between the Brand Philosophy STRAINISM (Tension) and Oversize

A question might arise here. Is the general common sense of oversize = relaxed/casual fundamentally contradictory to the brand philosophy STRAINISM (tension) advocated by D.HYGEN?

The Sculptural Contour Brought by Precise Pattern Making

What brilliantly resolves that contradiction is the sculptural three-dimensional pattern, the very essence of D.HYGEN.
Drawing a line from mere big silhouettes that just enlarge the fabric, by applying complex cutting based on the structure of the human body, it harbors a solid tension within a relaxed volume.

While providing room in the body width and armholes, it leaves a sharp edge on the line from the shoulder to the sleeve and the rise of the hood.
Precisely because of this meticulous calculation, despite the relaxed wearing comfort, the stoic air peculiar to D.HYGEN drifts in the figure reflected in the mirror.
Loose, yet sharp. The marvel of this pattern making lies in establishing this antinomy.

The Modern Balance Created by a Short Length and Urethane-Built-in Hood

Furthermore, the new balance with intentionally shortened length also helps maintain this tension.
By preventing the hem from accumulating sloppily and bringing the center of gravity upwards, the unrefined nature typical of oversizing has been eliminated.

Urethane is built into the hood part. It is designed to constantly maintain a three-dimensional volume around the face without losing its shape when worn.
When paired with the slim pants introduced the other day, the contrast in volume between top and bottom stands out, completing the edgy style idealized by the brand.

The Texture and Practicality of High-Density Dry Jersey Optimal for Spring and Summer

The material used is a 100% cotton high-density dry jersey fabric.
As it is not French terry, the thickness is restrained, allowing you to wear it comfortably even in the upcoming warmer seasons.

By being densely knitted, it is firmly equipped with a crispness within the softness peculiar to sweat material.
Because of this crispness, the three-dimensional silhouette mentioned earlier is maintained without collapsing.
With no transparency and a smooth touch to the skin, it demonstrates its true value most under temperatures around 10°C to 20°C.
Practical gimmicks such as the thumbholes on the cuffs and the zippers on the waist pockets that can be opened at the hem side to form slits are also considerations typical of D.HYGEN.

Styling Proposals from the Looks

From here, we will introduce stylings interwoven with the wearing images of the looks.

Navy Styling: A Decadent Setup Style Woven by Blue and Brown

This is a setup proposal featuring the Navy hoodie as the main role, paired with jogger pants of the same material. As conveyed from the images, this Navy is not just a single color, but a complex mixture of rust-like brown and gray.

By coordinating the top and bottom in the same color, the continuity of the graphic is emphasized, resulting in an appearance with higher artistry.
By adding voluminous shoes as an accent to the feet, the profoundness peculiar to artisans is added into the street atmosphere.
The short length makes the waist area look neat, giving a dynamic and nimble impression even in a setup.

Black Styling: A Dark Tone Layering Where Deep Green Lurks

This is a more stoic styling using the Black (in reality, a hue pregnant with dark green and gray) hoodie.

By pairing this with slim bottoms, a V-line silhouette that accentuates the oversized volume of the hoodie is constructed.
By inserting a similar dark tone as an inner layer and slightly opening the zip to show the layering, the shading of the graphic stands out even more.
The reason why the standing figure looks smart is, after all, the masterful work of the three-dimensional pattern.

Staff Wearing Size - D HYGEN Size Chart Reference

Please check the staff's wearing impressions as a practical D HYGEN size chart guide for choosing your size.

Staff A (180cm / 56kg)	Wearing: Size 2 [Size Fit] There is plenty of room around the arms and body width. Because the length is short, it is a very well-balanced silhouette where the waist position is just covered at size 2.
Staff B (174cm / 65kg)	Wearing: Size 3 [Size Fit] If you prefer a slightly larger fit, this is the perfect size. There is no feeling of tightness even if you match it with a slightly thick shirt as an inner layer.

Revisiting the Appeal of the Oversized Hoodie Jacket

Finally, let's summarize the main points of the item introduced this time.

• An original and highly artistic inkjet print inspired by rust
• A new balance of oversize x short length that breaks the tight past and shows the brand's evolution
• A design that harbors tension within a relaxed volume through a sculptural three-dimensional pattern
• A fusion of design and function, such as a urethane-built-in hood and a zipper with a slit function

While maintaining the STRAINISM (tension) at the root of the brand, this hoodie jacket that skillfully incorporates the current mood will surely make you feel the new D.HYGEN.
Relaxed, yet sharp. Please take it in your hands and experience this unique wearing sensation.
