Japanese brand Soe have made a name for themselves with the adventurous use of fabrics in their shirting, but it's actually a collection of T-shirts which have really caught my attention recently. This is my personal favourite from a series of options, all of which feature photos of seemingly happy young women, tinged with what feels to me like a certain loss of innocence. Intended or otherwise, each one is simply designed and quietly effective.

So far this has been a great spring for beautiful lightweight rain gear. MHL did a wonderful, denser version, and the heavily Acronym-inspired Gucci pieces were also nice. Japanese brand Soe has done a nice job combining the better aspects of both of those styles into one. The taped seams and heavier nylon make for a jacket that's sleek, while still retaining its initial purpose – keeping you dry.
