Nu Silk knit
T-shirt / Camisole / Tanktop / Loungewear
Nu silk knitwear is simple and comfortable, made of 100% silk yarn.
Japanese traditional loopwheel machines realized the quality of our silk knitwear. Silk yarn itself is fine fibers, so it has been difficult to create a thick texture in knitwear. The conventional popular method to make it thicker was blending silk and other fibers, however our silk knitwear is made of 100% pure silk and has a moderately thick texture. Loopwheel is a remarkable machine that allows us to utilize generations of knowledge in yarn knitting. This machine produces one meter of tubed material in one hour. Tubes, rather than a flat piece of fabric, allow us to reduce the number of seams in our garments.Using its slow pace and a small number of yarns makes it possible to achieve the material's unique strength and softness. Thus, our silk knitwear is comfortable all year round. It keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter. In summer, it absorbs and dissipates perspiration quickly. In winter, its warmth is generated through the weave in the material.
Our loopwheel silk knit fabrics are created in Wakayama Japan. These fabrics and colors are exclusive for NU.
