Words

Coach jackets have been really making the rounds over the last few seasons with some outstanding examples of the casual sportswear style from a wide range of brands. This version by the impressive Japanese label, A Vontade, has removed the collar for a unique reduction in design. The taupe colour, which would be great paired with the usual earth tones of fall, is particularly attractive too.

—01. Chambray cotton.

Words

A Vontade is a brand that I have really started to fall in love with, even though stockists seem to be entirely contained to their home country of Japan. This jacket called the Old Potter Jacket is a real standout, made from nepped chambray cotton with four buttons on the front. This jacket is a great take on a traditional work coat with a modern, attractive fit.

With a strong focus on construction and material, A Vontade, like many Japanese brands we feature, have produced their own version of a military fatigue trouser. These 100% cotton pants come in five colours and feature interesting thigh pockets, a cinch bottom and a reinforced gusset in between the legs.

Words

Simple lines, classic colours, all the right details. There are quite a few impressive jackets out there right now, as you can probably tell from all the posts I've done highlighting some of them, but this Mountain Parka from A Vontade might just be my pick of the bunch. Perhaps it's for the reasons I listed above, or perhaps it's because I know I probably won't ever get to see one in the flesh, after all: the hardest to find gems always seem to shine the brightest. Red, Green, Tan, or Blue.
