Size S, in very good pre-owned condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. This sweater says so plainly: the year of the founding is knitted into the front in collegiate block letters, and the tiger, the maison’s best-known emblem since the early 2010s, roars from the back beneath the Kenzo name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth motifs are intarsia, worked into the fabric rather than printed upon it, so the surface stays flat and the colours stay sharp. The tiger is drawn in golden yellow with a navy-striped face, red mouth and tongue, and a mane of white fringe that stands slightly proud of the knit. The ground is a deep, even navy in a fine-gauge blend of wool and cotton, finished with ribbed cuffs, hem and neckband, and a small red Kenzo Paris label at the nape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasured flat: shoulder 50 cm (19.7 in), chest width 52 cm (20.5 in), length 62 cm (24.4 in), sleeve length 57 cm (22.4 in). Every measurement is taken by hand with the piece laid flat, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kenzo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kenzo Paris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crew neck sweater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55% wool, 45% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmbroidery thread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Navy with yellow, white, slate and red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraphics:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1970 on the chest; tiger and Kenzo name on the back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShoulder:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 cm (19.7 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChest width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52 cm (20.5 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 62 cm (24.4 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 57 cm (22.4 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-owned, with no conspicuous marks or stains recorded.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine signs of previous wear may be present, as expected of a pre-owned knit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eA (very good)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe woven Kenzo Paris neck label with its size mark, and the composition and care labels, are all photographed.
