A Suit That Wears Like Sweats: FRUIT OF THE LOOM x Keiji Kaneko's ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT Returns for Round Two

Suits usually get their weight from wool or wool-blend fabrics, but this one's different: the entire piece is made from 100% cotton heavyweight Tenjiku jersey knit, giving it a hand-feel closer to a solid T-shirt than actual suiting fabric. That's exactly the contrast that hooked people when FRUIT OF THE LOOM first teamed up with BOUTIQUE owner Keiji Kaneko on the ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT — a piece that looks like a suit on the outside but wears with the relaxed ease of a cardigan and track pants underneath.

This return keeps both the single-breasted and double-breasted silhouettes. The single-breasted version leans more everyday, easily thrown over a T-shirt or button-up to instantly dress things up. The double-breasted version reads heavier visually, but the same jersey construction keeps it far softer than its silhouette suggests. Both styles come in sizes M, L, and XL.

On the color front, black and navy — both of which sold out in previous runs — are back, joined this time by a new brown option for the fall/winter season. According to the brand, black leans more urban, navy stays clean and versatile, while brown brings a warmer, more seasonal tone. All three colors are positioned to pair effortlessly with sneakers, leather shoes, or a ball cap without ever feeling out of place.

This series has sold out across multiple previous pre-order runs, making this restock a second chance for anyone who missed out. The FRUIT OF THE LOOM x Keiji Kaneko ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT pre-order runs from August 6 to August 12, though it may close early if stock sells out ahead of schedule. Shipping is expected in late September 2026.
