relaxed cut tailored jacket in heavyweight melton wool. warm fabric with a brushed surface and a slightly fulled, wrinkled appearance reminiscent of vintage military blankets. 2-in-1 item with a removable tailored liner vest in a different color of the same wool and iridescent cupro that is affixed to the main jacket with concealed button plackets. the buttons are removable and double sided like a cufflink, allowing this jacket to be worn in a wide variety of ways. features deep side pockets, 4 button faux cuffs, and partially lined interior in self fabric with bias bound armholes and handstitched finishing throughout.
notes a masterpiece from the heyday of the y's for men line with an exquisite blend of military and tailoring elements. advanced menswear that i think can be appreciated most by those with a mature stylistic sensibility. the styling possibilities are endless, and both items are also exceptional in standalone wear. the liner vest in particular can be worn with other items to add dynamic layering to an outfit. robust and warm, excellent for the fall / winter seasons. recommended for size medium / medium-large.
for a few years beginning with the a/w 03 season, y's for men collections were shown alongside mainline pour homme collections on the runway as a capsule collection of sorts that synergized and integrated with the overarching seasonal mood. the a/w 03 "pimp" collection featured y's for men looks with a strong military edge in heavy woolens processed with special overdye and fulling treatments. see the looks from the full collection here.tailored jacket and cargo pant setup in a different color the same fabric also available.
