The Sold-Out FRUIT OF THE LOOM x Keiji Kaneko Jersey ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT Is Back: Here's How To Get Yours
The 100% cotton suit returns in both cuts and gains a warmer brown option for Fall/Winter.
Summary
FRUIT OF THE LOOM and BOUTIQUE owner Keiji Kaneko have reopened pre-orders on their ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT built entirely from heavyweight cotton jersey
The collaboration comes in both single- and double-breasted cuts that look tailored but wear with the ease of a cardigan and sweatpants
A new brown shade joins the returning black and navy, adding a warmer seasonal option to the lineup
FRUIT OF THE LOOM and BOUTIQUE proprietor Keiji Kaneko have brought back the ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT, a collaboration that reimagines suiting in soft, heavyweight cotton jersey rather than conventional tailoring cloth. The pre-order pairs two silhouettes, a single-breasted and a double-breasted cut, with a fresh colorway expanding the range.
The premise rests on the fabric. Both pieces are made from a 100% cotton heavyweight tenjiku jersey, the kind of substantial cut-and-sew material more associated with a good T-shirt than a blazer. That gives the set real body and structure while keeping the feel firmly in T-shirt territory, so a jacket that reads as tailored actually slips on like a cardigan, and trousers that pass for slacks move like sweatpants. That gap between how the suit looks and how it wears is the whole point.
The two cuts split the difference between ease and polish. The single-breasted version is the lighter, more everyday option, designed to be thrown over a T-shirt or shirt for a quick lift in presentability. The double-breasted take carries a slightly dressier presence, though the jersey construction keeps it far softer than its silhouette suggests. Sizing runs M, L and XL across both.
On color, the standby black and navy return and are joined by a new brown. Per the brand, black leans urban, navy reads clean, and the new brown brings a warmer, more seasonal tone suited to Fall/Winter styling. All three are pitched as flexible enough to work with sneakers, leather shoes or a cap without friction.
This is a returning series that has sold through in past pre-orders, and this round is framed as another chance to choose across both cuts and the new brown. As with any pre-order of this kind, the run is finite.
The FRUIT OF THE LOOM x Keiji Kaneko ATHLETIC FORMAL SUIT is available to pre-order online from August 6 through August 12, with orders closing early if allocation sells out. Deliveries are expected in late September 2026.
