We totally understand, but what if a suit
could be just as comfortable as a hoodie and sweatpants? Across the Pacific, the technical
menswear gurus at Nanamica have created just that: the Nanamican ALPHADRY® Suit. This
two-piece suit consists of the ALPHADRY® Club Jacket and ALPHADRY® Dock Pants; pieces
that can easily stand alone but are at their best when worn together. Its relaxed, comfortable,
and very Japanese silhouette is based on 1950s Brooks Brothers sack suits, a style that has
experienced a renaissance in Japan, where all things oversized and Americana are welcomed
with open arms. Of course, Nanamica has updated their version with plenty of technical
features, the star of which is their ALPHADRY® fabric. This high-quality polyester is wrinkleresistant
and quick-drying, which helps keep the wearer cool and dry. If you’ve ever had the
misfortune of wearing a suit on a long flight, you’ll understand what a wonderful development
this is (Nanamica founder and frequent flyer Eiichiro Homma swears by it). Besides the fabric,
the Club Jacket has a six button closure, allowing it to be worn blazer-style or coverall-style
when buttoned all the way up. The Dock Pants also have a built-in belt, so the waist size is
easily adjustable. Throw in a generous helping of pockets, and that’s a recipe for one seriously
versatile suit. We recommend wearing it all day, every day.
