THOM KROM M SJ 690 Hoodie - Black Oversized Zip High Collar Distressed Men's SS26

The Hoodie That Refuses to Be Ordinary

The M SJ 690 is THOM KROM's oversized zip hoodie — and it carries the brand's full design language. High collar. Distressed cotton. Full-zip. A silhouette that is deliberately large, deliberately considered, and deliberately without logos. This is not a hoodie that blends into a wardrobe. It defines the outfit around it.

Why This Hoodie Is Different

• Distressed cotton construction: The fabric undergoes a specialized treatment that creates worn-in texture and tonal variation — each piece develops its own character with wear
• High collar: Rises above the standard hoodie neckline, adding architectural structure and warmth without a hood — a deliberate design choice, not a compromise
• Full-zip closure: Wear fully zipped for a clean column of black, or open over a fitted layer for a structured street look
• Oversized silhouette: Cut with generous proportions that drape rather than cling — the volume is intentional and calibrated
• Distressed finishing: Applied after construction so the treatment affects the entire garment uniformly — seams, body, collar — creating a cohesive aged aesthetic
• Premium cotton blend: Soft, substantial, and built to develop further character with every wash
• No-logo construction: THOM KROM's signature restraint — the design speaks without branding
• S–XXL sizing: Full range, sized for an oversized fit at every frame

Men's Size Chart

Oversized fit — chest values are intentionally generous. Size down if you prefer a closer oversized silhouette. Measurements may vary slightly due to the distressing process.

The Moment You Put It On

The distressed cotton has a softness that new fabric doesn't — the treatment breaks down the fibers before you've even worn it, so the first wear feels like the tenth. The high collar rises without stiffness, framing the face and neck with structure that a standard hood doesn't provide. The zip runs clean from hem to collar; the pull is weighted and precise.

Worn open, the front panels fall away from the body, creating a layered silhouette over whatever is underneath. Worn zipped, the M SJ 690 becomes a single, unbroken column of distressed black — architectural and complete.

The Art of Distressed Cotton

THOM KROM's distressing process is applied to the finished garment, not the raw fabric. This means the treatment affects every part of the hoodie — the body, the seams, the collar, the zip tape — creating a uniform aged quality that looks natural rather than manufactured. The cotton blend softens further with each wash, and the distressed areas develop additional character over time. No two pieces age identically. The black deepens in some areas and lightens in others, creating a tonal complexity that flat-dyed fabric cannot replicate.

How to Wear It

• Zipped minimal: Fully zipped over a fitted base layer with the M ST 509 cargo pants and clean boots — a complete THOM KROM look
• Open layer: Worn unzipped over a black tee, the panels framing a fitted layer underneath
• Under outerwear: The high collar rises above a coat or jacket collar — a deliberate layering detail
• Editorial: Paired with wide-leg trousers and minimal footwear for a contemporary, volume-forward silhouette

Care Instructions

Machine wash cold, gentle cycle, inside out to preserve the distressed finish and black depth. Do not tumble dry — hang to dry to maintain the oversized shape and fabric treatment. Do not bleach. Do not iron the distressed areas directly. The distressed finish will continue to develop naturally with washing — this is intentional and part of the garment's character.
