THOM KROM M SJ 706 Sweat Jacket - Black 100% Cotton Worked Knit Men's Contemporary German

The Knit Jacket That Earns Its Place

The THOM KROM M SJ 706 is a worked knit sweat jacket in 100% cotton — a construction category distinct from the brand's woven jackets. Where the M J 94 is structured and woven, the M SJ 706 is knitted: worked loop by loop from pure cotton yarn, producing a fabric with natural stretch, breathability, and a surface texture that woven cotton cannot replicate. The result is a jacket you reach for when the day calls for something that moves with you rather than around you. German design. Turkish manufacture.

Why This Jacket Is Different

• 100% Cotton worked knit: Knitted construction from pure cotton yarn — natural breathability, inherent stretch, and a textured surface distinct from woven cotton
• Worked / gewirkt construction: Each stitch is worked into the structure of the fabric — unlike woven fabrics that can fray or unravel at cuts, a worked knit is a complete fabric system
• Natural stretch without elastane: The knit structure itself provides give across all directions — no synthetic content required for freedom of movement
• German design: THOM KROM precision construction, no logos, no decorative excess
• Unlike the M J 94 woven jacket which provides structure and formality, the M SJ 706 provides comfort and movement — the jacket for physical days and relaxed contexts
• Cotton breathability: 100% cotton worked knit breathes naturally through the loop structure — more ventilation than woven cotton at equivalent weight
• Soft hand-feel: Cotton knit softens with each wash, developing a character unique to the garment and its wearer
• Investment quality: 100% cotton worked knit without synthetic content ages honestly — it softens and develops without degrading

The Moment You Put It On

The worked cotton knit is immediately different from a woven jacket — it gives where a woven resists. You raise your arms and the fabric follows. You sit and the back doesn't pull. The cotton breathes through its loop structure: cooler than a woven at the same visual weight. With each wash it softens slightly, the black deepening in character rather than fading. This is the jacket that gets better the more you wear it.

There are jackets you put on for occasions. The M SJ 706 is the one you put on for everything else.

The Art of Worked Knit Cotton

A worked knit — gewirkt in German — is a fabric constructed by interlocking loops of yarn rather than interlacing warp and weft threads as in a woven. The loop structure is what gives knit fabrics their inherent stretch: as tension is applied, the loops elongate and recover. In 100% cotton without elastane, this recovery is slower and softer than a cotton-elastane blend, producing a more relaxed, organic give. The surface texture of a worked knit is also fundamentally different from woven cotton: the looped structure creates a visible stitch pattern, a softer tactile surface, and a greater surface area that breathes more freely than a flat woven. THOM KROM's worked knit construction in the M SJ 706 uses this material logic to build a jacket with the visual presence of a structured outer layer and the comfort properties of a premium sweatshirt.

How to Wear It

• Over a THOM KROM base layer: The knit jacket as the outer layer for mild days — cotton against cotton, the worked texture providing visual interest in a monochromatic black stack
• Under the M J 94 cotton jacket: The knit's natural stretch makes it an ideal mid-layer; the polyamide-viscose lining of the M J 94 slides cleanly over the knit surface
• With the M P 52 cotton trouser: A full cotton construction — the woven trouser and worked knit jacket in the same natural material language
• Weekend and movement: The knit's stretch and breathability make it the practical choice for days that involve more than standing still

Care Instructions

• Machine wash cold, gentle cycle — inside out to preserve knit surface texture and colour depth
• Do not tumble dry — lay flat to dry to maintain knit structure and prevent stretching under gravity
• Do not iron on high heat — low steam iron if needed, with a pressing cloth over the knit surface
• Do not dry clean
• Store folded rather than hung to prevent the knit from stretching at the shoulders over time
