Streetwear imprint COMME des GARÇONS HOMME recently introduced its collection of coach jackets that boast dual-toned designs. The new set of outerwear options are constructed in Japan and their highlighting element lies in their color scheme that contrasts subtly across the sleeves and body. While boasting the same color, the body of the jacket is finished in a slightly darker hue than the sleeves. There are three colorway options in total -- with the selections of either red, blue, or green.
The 'Dual-Tonal Logo' coach jacket is crafted from a nylon shell that receives a polyester mesh lining within. It is enclosed with a set of tonal snap buttons along with two frontal pockets done in welt materials. The hem is rounded off with an adjustable drawstring and the sleeves are complete with raglan. Notably, the back of the coach jackets see branding details done in a large white text that reads 'CdGH."
