Waffle Midneck Ketchup

Jackman's "Waffle Midneck" uses significantly thicker cotton yarn than is typical for standard waffle knits.

Waffle knit became known primarily as a thermal undershirt through the US military: The "Undershirt, Extreme Cold Weather" from the 1960s and 70s used this exact structure to provide soldiers with extra warmth under their other clothing – the raised squares trap air and provide insulation.

Thanks to the thickened yarn and specially adapted knitting machines, the result at Jackman is significantly heavier and more voluminous than an ordinary waffle knit – a heavyweight fabric with a correspondingly dense, soft feel.

Compared to the previous model JM7200, this midneck is 6cm wider in the body and 2cm longer.
