Despite its relatively recent inception in 2013, Batoner is the own brand of Okuyama Meriyasu knitwear established in the 1950s. Batoner, meaning "one who inherits", proudly represents the nearly century-old craftsmanship of the Japanese prefecture of Yamagata, which has gathered the best knitting factories in Japan for many years. With only about fifteen still active today, each strives to perpetuate the techniques and traditions that have made this region famous.

In this context, Batoner offers a wide range of sweaters, vests, and cardigans made from their Signature Knit. This knit is crafted by the family-owned Sato Seni mill also located in Yamagata. It is made from Merino wool yarn and offers substantial weight while retaining flexibility and breathability thanks to a lace stitch. The spinning technique used preserves the authenticity of the wool and gives the final knit a unique ribbed appearance.

For this crew neck sweater, the design is simple and minimalist to maintain the timeless aura cherished by the manufacturer. The assembly of the raglan sleeves supports a versatile straight fit that will easily match a wide variety of outfits and combinations. This crew neck features a thick and reinforced neckline that will ensure its durability over time. With its substantial weight, this sweater provides significant heat retention to effectively combat winter. It is presented here in an "ivory" shade, a subdued and bright off-white that will bring contrast and light to your outfits.
