COMME des GARÇONS JUNYA WATANABE MAN
SukezaneI really love the color. It reminds me of Dartmouth green, and the puffiness of the down feels very '70s. For an item like this, I find myself wanting to pair it with flared jeans rather than slacks. I actually own something similar, so I'd like to style it with a vibe reminiscent of an American coming-of-age film.
A double name with The North Face. The dynamic logo paint from the sides to the back makes a strong impact, and authentic details like the drawcords and mesh inner pockets are, of course, present. The hood can be easily removed with snaps, which is a nice touch. ¥69,000 (COMME des GARÇONS JUNYA WATANABE MAN / COMME des GARÇONS 03-3486-7611)
