Despite its relatively recent inception in 2013, Batoner is the proprietary brand of the knitwear company Okuyama Meriyasu, established in the 1950s. Batoner, which means "one who inherits," proudly represents the nearly century-old craftsmanship of the Yamagata prefecture in Japan, which has been home to some of the best knitting factories in Japan for many years. Today, only about fifteen remain active, each striving to preserve the techniques and traditions that have made this region famous.

Although specialized in wool knitting, Batoner leverages its experience to offer premium cotton sweats and t-shirts, made on very specific machines. This t-shirt is made from organic cotton with extra-long fibers, spun in double thickness and knitted on a special knitting machine, which provides comfortable tension and seamless construction on the body. It features a soft touch and a silky texture characteristic of organic cotton. The standard, comfortable, and versatile fit is complemented by single stitch sleeves and hem. The collar is made with a shoulder-to-shoulder tape to resist stretching and deformation, even after many wears and washes.
