LACOSTE.is represented by polo shirts, which may have a strong image of the spring and summer seasons. However, the items introduced here are outerwear. Moreover, the combination of "Lacoste" and these items are collaborations with five famous brands, which is a bit unexpected.
First up is a down jacket with PYRENEX. This brand is a long-established business established in France in 1859. This piece is an adaptation of the PYRENEX's standard short length down jacket. The name of both brands is embellished on the tape that runs from the body to the sleeves. It is filled with a unique mixture of feathers and duck down, so there is no question about its warmth-retaining properties.
The second is GLOVERALL, a long-established British brand famous for its wool coats. This time, we chose a pea coat, which is one of the brand's most popular items along with the duffle coat. This is an elegant coat redesigned from a model designed as a uniform for Royal Navy officers to a medium length.
The brightly colored parka is from " K-WAY" of France. It is based on a rain jacket that has been loved and updated since its appearance in 1965. The two brands' names are printed on the tape on the chest and sleeves as accents. Kids' sizes are also available, making this a model that can be enjoyed by both parents and children.
Collaboration with ALPHA INDUSTRIES, a well-known military wear brand, is a flight jacket. While respecting the original design, the colors of the right sleeve and the cigarette pocket on the left sleeve have been boldly switched. This model is perfect for the starring role in a coordinated outfit.
Last but not least is TAILOR TOYO, known for its Souvenir jackets. While based on the iconic item, the jacket is playful, featuring Lacoste's crocodile and founder René Lacoste on the back, in addition to the embroidered flowers and dragons that adorn the jacket.
These items will be available at Lacoste's online store from October 3. Items with Pyrenex, Groverall, K-Way, and Alpha Industries will be available at Lacoste's Shibuya, Ginza, Shinsaibashi, and Kyoto stores, and items with Taylor Toyo will be available only at the Ginza store.
All five jackets are unisex jackets, arranged to suit the current mood. In a good sense, the designs are designed to overturn the image of "Lacoste. Find the outerwear you need for the coming season at Lacoste.
