Alain Mikli Reversible Minimal Snap Front Olive / Stone Jacket (~M~)
Alain Mikli is mostly known for their innovative eyewear designs. Some notable examples of his work are his collaborations with Issey Miyake to creating the infamous "shutter shades" worn in Kanye's hit "stronger" and even creating some worn by Elton John. Its interesting to see how their design sensibilities stretch over into a different medium. A pure snap enclosure front on a reversible jacket feels unusual yet feels great and fun to style with the contrasting snap buttons showing quite clearly. Both faces are distinct not just in terms of colour but also material and construction. Whilst the olive face features more conspicuous branded zippered pockets, the stone face features hidden zippered pockets that follow the seams, a lovely subtle contrast. This change in medium creates a refreshing piece of clothing.
Good general condition just a small pinhole on the sleeve of the olive side and 1 zip pull is missing.
Missing size notation fits like a lovely short boxy medium
