BOTTEGA VENETA

YusukeThe combination of fine leather and nylon, accented with Intrecciato, along with the dark moss green hue, creates a chic look. Its luxurious feel, unusual for a down vest, would likely shine when layered over a black or gray flannel suit.

While its appearance is sporty, the brand's icons are subtly incorporated throughout, such as the stand collar, the leather details on the shoulders, and the zipper tabs engraved with the Intrecciato motif. Functionality is also outstanding, with a large inner pocket attached to the inside of the front body. ¥230,000 (Bottega Veneta / Bottega Veneta Japan 0120-60-1966)
