Simple, purposeful and designed to be worn for years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"knickerbocker-metro-waffle-full-zip-hoodie","title":"Knickerbocker - Metro Waffle Full-zip Hoodie","description":"\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker’s Metro Waffle Full Zip Hoodie takes one of the most familiar pieces in everyday clothing and gives it considerably more substance than the standard cotton sweatshirt. Built around two separate heavyweight cotton fabrics, the hoodie pairs a dense 425gsm brushed fleece exterior with a full 10oz thermal waffle lining. The result is a piece designed less like a basic layering sweatshirt and more like a substantial cold weather layer that can sit somewhere between a hoodie and a light jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outer fabric is a 425gsm 100% cotton brushed fleece knitted in Portugal. At that weight, the material has noticeably more body and structure than the lighter fleece commonly used for everyday sweatshirts. The brushed interior surface of the fleece creates softness and additional loft, while the heavier knit helps the garment hold its shape rather than collapsing against the body. It gives the Metro Hoodie the substantial feel expected from heavyweight sportswear while keeping the comfort that makes a full zip sweatshirt easy to wear regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat really separates it from a conventional heavyweight hoodie is the second fabric underneath. Knickerbocker fully lines the garment with a 10oz 100% cotton thermal, also knitted in Portugal. Rather than simply increasing the weight of the fleece, the thermal creates another insulating layer inside the garment. Its waffle structure forms small raised cells across the fabric, increasing surface area and creating spaces where warm air can be retained close to the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaffle knit fabrics have long been used for thermal underwear and cold weather base layers for exactly this reason. The texture adds warmth without requiring the fabric to become excessively dense or rigid. Here, Knickerbocker effectively takes that principle and builds it directly into the hoodie. Instead of wearing a thermal underneath a sweatshirt, the two are combined into a single garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination also changes how the hoodie feels when worn. The fleece shell provides the smooth, substantial exterior and familiar appearance of classic athletic wear, while the waffle lining gives the inside considerably more texture and insulation. Because both layers are cotton, the garment retains the natural hand and breathability associated with cotton sportswear rather than relying on synthetic insulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat construction should make the Metro particularly useful through the colder part of the year. It has enough substance to function as an outer layer through cool transitional weather, while the full thermal lining makes it well suited to being worn underneath heavier coats and jackets once temperatures drop. The full zip construction also gives it more flexibility than a pullover hoodie, particularly when moving between indoor and outdoor environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker uses a custom two way YKK developed zipper through the front. The two way design allows the zipper to open from both the top and bottom, which becomes especially useful on a heavier, longer wearing layer. Opening the lower zipper slightly can create more room around the waist when sitting, driving or layering the hoodie over other garments without needing to completely unzip the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA utility pocket on the sleeve introduces a small functional detail while keeping the rest of the hoodie relatively restrained. Rather than filling the garment with decorative elements, the focus remains on fabric, proportion and construction. That understated approach is consistent with Knickerbocker’s broader take on traditional American sportswear, familiar silhouettes that are refined through material choice and manufacturing rather than excessive detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relaxed fit is important considering the amount of fabric being used. Instead of cutting the hoodie close to the body, Knickerbocker leaves enough room for the heavyweight shell and thermal lining to sit comfortably without feeling overly restrictive. There is also enough space to layer a T shirt, thermal or lighter shirt underneath while still allowing the hoodie to retain its intended silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the fleece and thermal fabrics are knitted in Portugal, with the completed garment also manufactured there. Keeping the knitting and garment production within Portugal places the emphasis on the textile itself, which is ultimately what makes this hoodie different. There is nothing particularly complicated about the basic idea of a full zip sweatshirt, but combining a 425gsm fleece shell with a complete 10oz thermal lining changes the way the garment functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the kind of piece that makes the most sense once handled. From the outside it remains a clean, relatively straightforward zip hoodie. The weight, layered construction and waffle interior are what reveal how much more material is involved. For anyone accustomed to traditional heavyweight sweatshirts, the Metro pushes that concept further by effectively combining two cold weather cotton layers into one garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker Metro Waffle Full Zip Hoodie\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavyweight cold weather construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% cotton outer shell\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e425gsm brushed cotton fleece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFleece knitted in Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull thermal lining\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% cotton thermal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10oz waffle knit lining\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermal fabric knitted in Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaffle construction creates additional loft and insulation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo layer cotton construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft brushed fleece exterior fabric\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubstantial structured hand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustom YKK developed zipper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo way front zipper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleeve utility pocket\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelaxed fit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for layering\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable as a substantial mid layer or cool weather outer layer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShop more styles from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Knickerbocker\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnickerbocker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFabric \u0026amp; Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made with a 425gsm 100% cotton brushed fleece shell and fully lined in a separate 10oz 100% cotton thermal waffle knit.

The design is a nod to the chore coats Knickerbocker once produced in its original Queens factory, taking that straightforward piece of American workwear and refining it through fabric, construction and finishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe coat is cut from a substantial 14.5oz indigo selvedge denim woven by Candiani Mills in Italy. Made from 100% cotton, the denim is woven on traditional shuttle looms and rope dyed, allowing the indigo to remain concentrated toward the surface of the yarn. This creates the foundation for the denim to continue developing contrast and character as it is worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than starting completely raw, Knickerbocker gives the denim its Indigo Vintage Wash. The wash brings out the texture and variation of the fabric from the beginning, softening the heavier 14.5oz denim and giving the coat a naturally worn appearance without taking away its ability to continue evolving over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction stays firmly rooted in traditional workwear. Triple needle felled seams reinforce the coat throughout, while adjustable cuffs allow the sleeves to be opened up or brought in depending on how it is worn.

Finished in Deep Forest, it has the familiar athletic character of a vintage crew without feeling like a direct reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is made from Knickerbocker’s heavyweight 500 GSM cotton fleece, giving the Stadium Crew considerably more structure and substance than a standard sweatshirt. The dense fabric creates a substantial hand while the brushed interior keeps it comfortable against the body. It is the kind of sweatshirt that works as a standalone layer through the transitional months and becomes an easy mid-layer once heavier outerwear comes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker keeps the design intentionally simple. A traditional ribbed crew neckline is paired with ribbed cuffs and hem, creating the familiar shape and structure associated with classic American athletic sweats. The Deep Forest colour adds some depth without taking away from the simplicity of the piece, making it an easy pairing with indigo denim, fatigues, chinos or work trousers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike much of Knickerbocker’s collection, the Stadium Crew looks backward without getting stuck there. The influence comes from traditional American sportswear, but the heavier fabric, proportions and restrained detailing make it feel contemporary rather than like a costume piece. There is very little happening visually, which puts the focus where it should be, on fabric, fit and how the sweatshirt feels after years of wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a simple piece done properly, substantial enough to feel like more than a basic sweatshirt and versatile enough to become an everyday layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep Forest colour\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavyweight 500 GSM fleece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% cotton\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft brushed interior\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic crewneck sweatshirt construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibbed crew neckline\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibbed cuffs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibbed hem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubstantial structured hand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic American athletic and sportswear influence\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an everyday layering piece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso available in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\/products\/knickerbocker-stadium-deep-forest-crew-sweater\" title=\"Deep Forest\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeep Forest\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\/products\/knickerbocker-stadium-peat-crew-sweater-1\" title=\"Peat\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShop more styles from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\" title=\"Knickerbocker\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnickerbocker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFabric \u0026amp; Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made from heavyweight 500 GSM cotton fleece with a soft brushed interior.

Made from a 10.3 oz brushed cotton fleece knitted in Portugal, it has considerably more substance than a lightweight modern sweatshirt without moving into the extremely heavy territory that can make a crewneck difficult to layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is made entirely from cotton using dual ring spun, combed cotton yarns. Ring spinning twists the cotton fibres into a tighter and more consistent yarn, creating a smoother and stronger foundation for the finished knit. Combing takes that process a step further by removing shorter fibres and impurities before spinning, leaving predominantly longer cotton fibres behind. It is a more considered approach to what initially looks like a very straightforward sweatshirt fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce knitted, the fleece is brushed to raise fibres along the interior surface. This creates the soft, slightly lofty texture traditionally associated with athletic fleece while also helping the fabric retain warmth. Rather than relying on additional synthetic insulation, the warmth comes from the structure and density of the cotton itself. At 10.3 oz, there is enough material here to give the sweatshirt a substantial hand while still allowing it to move naturally with the wearer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker refers to this fabric as its Loft Knit, an evolution of the standard fleece previously used throughout its sportswear. The idea is relatively simple, retain the softness and familiar construction of a traditional cotton sweatshirt while adding more weight, warmth and durability. The result sits comfortably between a lighter everyday sweatshirt and the exceptionally dense fleece often associated with reproduction athletic wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat balance makes the Stadium particularly versatile. It is substantial enough to wear as a primary layer through cooler weather, but it does not become so bulky that it cannot sit comfortably underneath a denim jacket, chore coat, leather jacket or heavier winter coat. For a wardrobe built around denim and workwear, that middle ground is useful because the sweatshirt can move between seasons rather than being reserved exclusively for the coldest part of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Peat colour gives the familiar sportswear shape a noticeably different character from traditional heather grey. It is an earthy, muted tone that sits naturally alongside indigo denim, black denim, olive fatigues, brown workwear and neutral outerwear. Because there is very little decoration elsewhere on the garment, the colour and texture of the fleece become a larger part of its identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction follows the language of traditional athletic clothing. Raglan sleeves extend from the neckline into the underarm rather than meeting the body at a conventional shoulder seam. Historically, raglan construction became common in sportswear because it allowed greater freedom through the shoulder and removed the fixed seam that normally determines exactly where a garment should sit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Stadium Crew, that construction works particularly well with the relaxed fit. The shoulder is allowed to fall naturally depending on the wearer rather than being forced into a sharply defined position. It creates an easier silhouette through the upper body and gives the sweatshirt the slightly relaxed character associated with older athletic garments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cuffs and waistband are finished with ribbed knit. Ribbing has a practical purpose on sweatshirts, providing enough stretch for the openings to move comfortably while helping the sleeves and body return to shape afterward. The tighter structure at the cuffs and hem also gives definition to the otherwise relaxed body, preventing the silhouette from feeling overly loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is intentionally very little else competing for attention. No large graphics, unnecessary pockets or complicated construction details are needed to make the piece interesting. Knickerbocker’s approach is closer to refining an established piece of clothing than redesigning it. The familiar crewneck sweatshirt remains recognizable, but the yarn, fabric weight, fit and manufacturing have all been given considerably more consideration than would normally be found in basic sportswear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is preshrunk before the garment is finished. This is especially useful with a 100% cotton sweatshirt, where untreated fleece can change noticeably after its first few washes. Preshrinking helps stabilize the material so the garment begins much closer to its intended dimensions. As with any cotton knit, excessive heat should still be avoided if maintaining the original fit is important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepeated wear should gradually make the sweatshirt feel even more natural. Cotton fleece tends to soften as the fibres relax through washing and use, while the ribbing settles around the wrists and waist and the body begins to conform more closely to the wearer. The goal is not for the garment to remain perfectly untouched, but to become more comfortable and familiar with time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a good example of Knickerbocker’s broader approach to American sportswear. Rather than reproducing a particular vintage sweatshirt stitch for stitch, the brand takes the underlying idea and rebuilds it through better fabric, considered proportions and Portuguese manufacturing. The result feels rooted in older athletic clothing without becoming a costume or reproduction piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor something as simple as a crewneck, that restraint is what makes the Stadium work. The interest is in the hand of the fleece, the way the raglan sleeves sit, the muted Peat colour and the way a substantial cotton sweatshirt works into an everyday rotation. It is designed to be the kind of piece that gets pulled on without much thought, then gets better simply because it is worn often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnickerbocker Stadium Loft Knit Crew\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeat colour\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic athletic crewneck construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% cotton\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10.3 oz brushed cotton fleece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFleece knitted in Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDual ring spun cotton yarns\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombed cotton yarns\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft brushed interior\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubstantial midweight fleece construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaglan sleeve construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibbed cuffs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibbed waistband\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelaxed fit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreshrunk fabric\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for everyday layering\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso available in \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\/products\/knickerbocker-stadium-deep-forest-crew-sweater\" title=\"Deep Forest\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDeep Forest\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\/products\/knickerbocker-stadium-oat-grey-crew-sweater\" title=\"Oat Grey\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOat Grey\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop more styles from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/privateandco.ca\/collections\/knickerbocker\" title=\"Knickerbocker\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnickerbocker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFabric \u0026amp; Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made from 100% cotton 10.3 oz brushed fleece knitted in Portugal using dual ring spun, combed cotton yarns.
