Despite being relatively new, founded in 2013, Batoner is the proprietary brand of the knitwear company Okuyama Meriyasu, established in the 1950s. Batoner, meaning "one who inherits", proudly represents the nearly century-old craftsmanship of the Yamagata prefecture in Japan, which has housed the best knitting manufacturers in Japan for many years. With only about fifteen of these manufacturers still active today, each strives to preserve the techniques and traditions that have made this region renowned.

The Essential High Gauge Turtle Neck sweater offered here by Batoner is a perfect choice for those seeking both comfort and elegance. It is crafted from a fine 100% merino wool knit, knitted in high gauge. The higher the gauge, the finer the knit, and the better it will hold its shape. As a result, it offers a soft texture and impeccable drape. Its solid color adds a note of simplicity and great versatility, making it easy to pair with a wide variety of pieces.
