Commonly thought to be turning point string.  
However if you just want a string that looks similar, try werrd blueprint. Its heavier than kitty and apparently better for slacks.

TP strings come also in regular and fat iirc, but obviously i cant tell without a side to side comparison.  
I was just saying that there are many other strings that come in pink polyester medium/fat.

Takeshi uses the steel string from Turning Point. It’s really strong but also pretty thick.
