The Classic Raglan Sweater by X Collection Antwerp: Featuring the Iconic V-Notch
The raglan sweater is a timeless staple, and the X Collection Antwerp elevates it to new heights with its classic design and distinctive V-notch detail. Perfectly balancing comfort and style, this laid-back piece is as effortlessly cool as it is enduringly fashionable.
But what’s the story behind the V-notch? It’s not just a charming design element—it’s a nod to history. When the sweatshirt was invented in 1926 as a football jersey, the V-notch served a practical purpose. It featured a thicker piece of cotton around the collar to absorb sweat during intense physical activity. Additionally, its reinforced stitching ensured the neckline maintained its shape, even under the strain of movement.
Over time, as sweatshirts evolved from sportswear to casual and luxury essentials, the V-notch transcended its functional beginnings. It has been reimagined in various sizes and designs, becoming a signature feature synonymous with understated elegance.
Today, the V-notch on X Collection Antwerp’s raglan sweater is a testament to this rich heritage, adding a subtle hint of history to a contemporary wardrobe essential. Pair it with your favorite trousers or denim for a look that’s effortlessly cool and endlessly versatile.
