The Greige Heavyweight LS Ribbed Crew from Mooncastle is a substantial cotton knit designed for cooler days and evenings. Fully knitted in Osaka, Japan, the dense 7-gauge half rib construction gives the piece structure, texture, and warmth without feeling overly heavy or stuffy. Crafted from 100% cotton, it offers a clean, dry handle with a more substantial feel than a standard knit, while the versatile greige tone — sitting between grey and beige — adds an understated, easy-to-wear character.

Built Using Traditional Japanese Knitwear Manufacturing

Unlike mass-produced knitwear, every stage of the Greige Heavyweight LS Ribbed Crew — from design and pattern cutting through to knitting, sewing, and finishing — is completed entirely in-house by Mooncastle in Osaka, Japan. This level of control allows for exceptional consistency, cleaner construction, and a more considered final garment.

Heavyweight Cotton Knitwear for Transitional Weather

The dense 7-gauge half rib stitch creates a knit with natural structure and warmth while still remaining breathable thanks to its pure cotton composition. Ideal for transitional dressing, it works comfortably through cooler spring evenings, autumn days, and layered winter outfits.
