Uniqlo +J: The Military Jacket


image: uniqlo.com








The Uniqlo +J Wool Military Jacket was sold out on my first visit, but I was persistent enough on a return visit to snag one in Dark Grey. Sean O'Pry looked amazing in this jacket from the advertising campaign and it was the one item I really hoped to find from the collection. Persistence always wins.

This cropped, fitted Military Jacket in heavy 80% Wool/20% Nylon is perfect for Fall Vespa rides. The matte black metal zipper is hidden behind a snap over placket and the two slash pockets are perfect for keeping my hands warm once I hop off my scooter. There are two front breast pockets and a small zippered pocket just perfect for an iPhone. I like the stand up collar (which contains a shiny Polyester hood in the zippered compartment) and the motorcycle influenced zippered sleeves. The back is very shaped and there are even vent holes under the arms. Dior Homme meets Balenciaga meets Prada Sport. All for $129 USD.

Cheers to Uniqlo +J. When is the next collection? Jil Sander is back.
