Experience the unique blend of heritage and modern design with this deep-pile fleece jacket. Featuring a rich indigo damask pattern, contrast piping, and jacquard webbing detailing, this jacket stands out in any outdoor setting. Thoughtfully designed with two zip pockets and a charming embroidered zipper pull, it embodies both functionality and style. Made in Japan, it fits true to size and is perfect for layering in cooler weather, while remaining easy to care for with a simple wash and hang dry.
From the brand: The first deep-pile fleece jacket appeared 35 years ago, six years after Malden Mills introduced the world to polar fleece, and quickly became canonical as an outdoor garment. The descent into low-cost (and low quality) ubiquity came about as a direct result of Malden's refusal to patent their new textile. By the end of the century, fleece jackets were fully déclassé, something to ridicule as a non-choice when worn and given away in bulk as corporate swag.
However, as the original pieces became coveted collectables, the design language and materials began to be adopted by designers like Kiro Hirata of Kapital. Warping and twisting the source code in the same way he hacked other classic garments, he takes the deep pile fleece jacket and pulls it in his alt-history of garments.
The fleece here has an indigo damask pattern woven in, with peak-outdoors-aesthetic touches such as the contrast piping and jacquard webbing detailing. Even the zipper pull has a little embroidered tiger motif.
