Junya Watanabe’s latest collection for Comme des Garcons has been delivered. Taking a very interesting hunting and fishing inspired twist to obsolete cloakroom staples. As we have seen in the past, much of this season is dedicated to collaborative pieces. Updating classic Harrington and Gloverall jackets and Levi’s jeans with modern details such as elbow pads, yokes and more – in denim, wool, reversible suede, nylon and leather – Junya Watanabe has produced a series of unrivaled items. The collection also includes several nice t-shirts and button up shirts. Available now at colette.fr.

The Baracuta G9 is such a classic, one just should have on in the closet. Recently we presented to you the Beams Plus collaboration and for sure you still have in mind the various Stussy collaborations from last year. Here we present you their latest limited edition version – the Baracuta G9 Slim Limited Punk Edition Harrington.
Paying homage to the 1980s Punk era, Baracuta has produced a limited edition jacket. The jacket comes full with 3 punk badges, a stunning 80’s album cover inspired pink box. Also on the inner lining there is the print “I’m No One’s Lap Dog”, which is also featured on the packaging. The jacket is now available at End.
After the jump more detailed pictures.

After a live gig at the Newburgh Street Shop of Fred Perry, in September 2005, Matt the lead singer of The Dead 60s, asked if they had ever produced a tartan reversed Harrington. He had been searching for one for ages. Fred Perry did not think at the time it was a good idea, because the Harrington was worn reverse side out in the Punk Era.
Then the project begun with Matt and the rest of the band involved for every detail of the final garments. Fred Perry will be releasing 500 of the Red Stuart Tartan and Monochrome Cornish Tartan Harrington worldwide very soon. All jackets are individually numbered and feature a The Dead 60s neck label.
If you want to be among the first to own one of those collectors pieces, you can now sign up on the Fred Perry website here.
