The deep charcoal gray with a heathered effect creates dimensional shadows, resulting in a presence that feels monochromatic yet rich in depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe neckline is a neatly finished crewneck, while the body features a naturally comfortable ease. Against a relaxed silhouette with slightly dropped shoulder seams, the sleeves are designed to be long and slender—leaving sharpness even in the unforced impression and forming a light, well-balanced fit that does not cling too closely to the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/3E68C1F5-9010-4DE6-BC02-3EB187522C01.jpg?v=1789291615\" alt=\"Close-up highlighting the long, slender sleeves and the fine heathered wool knit stitches\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;display:block;margin:1.5em auto\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat deserves special attention is the wide fabric panel switching at the hem. A rough, three-dimensional knit—composed of 80% wool and 10% polyester and 10% nylon each—is layered in a color tone closer to inky black than the body. Along with the irregular line and the frayed textures visible at the edges, this adds a subtle sense of incongruity and craftsmanship to an otherwise well-balanced knit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/2B55473E-B5C6-462F-BF5E-114A586B0277.jpg?v=1789291615\" alt=\"Detail view of the hem contrast with layered coarse knit fabric and the irregular fraying\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;display:block;margin:1.5em auto\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the quality indication tag, in addition to the listing of AD1995, you can also find D-TK9210—an identifier number for quality labeling under the former system—along with the company name COMME des GARÇONS and the notation MADE IN JAPAN. Therefore, it can be determined that this item belongs to the manufacturing cycle of 1995. It can truly be said to be a well-documented archive piece that preserves the atmosphere of the so-called Tanaka Homme period, during which Keiji Tanaka handled the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt first glance, it appears to be a quintessential wool sweater, yet it is precisely its ability to create a quiet individuality in styling—through the contrasting materials at the hem and its irregular outline—that makes this era’s COMME des GARÇONS HOMME so compelling. We especially recommend it to those seeking an archive piece that honors the brand’s background while fitting naturally into everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor styling, we suggest pairing it with black wide slacks or faded denim and wearing it so that the hem contrast is visible—so the material contrast stands out. Furthermore, if you incorporate it inside a long coat, you can add a restrained depth to an impeccably tailored look, allowing you to enjoy it broadly—from the main hero pieces of autumn and winter to layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/FAF8E5CD-8F51-4A4F-9564-7368675313E2.jpg?v=1789291615\" alt=\"Overall view from the back showing the roomy body and the long, slender sleeves\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;display:block;margin:1.5em auto\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a rare piece from the mid-1990s that is difficult to re-acquire under the same conditions from the same era—so please take advantage of this opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COMME des GARCONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49569212661998,"sku":null,"price":352.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/DEF55F3D-D055-494F-BE81-75D4203CAF5A.jpg?v=1789291615","url":"https:\/\/mood-by-link.com\/en-sg\/products\/mo-001526","provider":"MOOD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
