Vanson and Junya Watanabe Comme des Garcons eYe did not only work on a camouflage leather tote bag, but now they also present the matching leather camouflage biker jacket. The thick leather has gotten an all-over camo treatment and as bold of a statement it is, we love it. The jacket is now in stock at Dover Street Market.

Last season we saw a beautiful leather varsity jacket from Vanson and Comme des Garcons Junya Watanabe MAN. For Spring/Summer 2011 they got together once more and this time worked on an all leather camouflage tote bag. The bag is now available from SlamJam stores (storeguide).

UK retailer End have taken delivery of an amazing varsity from Junya Watanabe MAN. “Comme des Garçons designer Junya Watanabe’s AW10 collection combines heritage design with the Watanabe’s unique use of contrasting fabrics. This leather varsity jacket takes this American college classic and adds a quilted camouflage lining, a subtle but well considered variation that works exceptionally well.” The results are beautiful and Vanson Leather construction is always top notch.

Not for the first time Junya Watanabe has worked with Vanson on a leather jacket. For Fall/Winter 2010 they decided to go with a more casual silhouette that reminds of a more classic motorcycle jacket. It comes in black with a camouflage lining and further red details, as well as collaborative branding. The jacket is now available from Ark.

Detailed images of the jacket follow after the jump.

Junya Watanabe got together with Vanson Leathers for their Fall/Winter 2007 collection. Vanson Leathers is America’s largest manufacturer of leather motorcycle jackets and motorcycle riding apparel. In business for over thirty years in Massachusetts, USA, Vanson has consistently innovated and evolved its product line to exceed the expectations.
Once again it is impressive how the brand searches for the highest quality in the market to add their own flair to a classic. There are 49 steps involved in putting together the simplest Vanson jacket, and up to 126 steps in the construction of their most complicated pieces. All of these steps are done by hand in America. We have seen the same idea of taking a high quality classic by Junya Watanabe earlier with Levi’s, Lacoste, Fred Perry and Moncler. From the outside the jacket looks like a regular Vanson – Junya Watanabe added their camouflage to the inner lining. Pics via Reinforce.
