JACKET: The jacket fabric is a type of pearl weave, but they've cinched up the fabric's "pearl" bumps. As you can see in the close-ups, this means each "pearl" is slightly more raised, has slightly more breathing room around it, and appears not only tighter but also longer/narrower than your typical pearl weave look. This, and the 300 GSM weight, not only keep the jacket feeling breathable and light, but also adds a unique texture to the exterior (to the touch and to the appearance).

PANTS: Cursive LITE boasts another impressive textile. . . This pant/collar fabric is new to us. And we like. Kitsune took the checkered reinforcement technique from conventional ripstop, but wove it at an angle. And then called in some diamond-shaped reinforcements for back-up. And again a nice and subtle texture change to liven up the typical Gi look :)
