READYMADE introduces a new Bandana Down jacket that is designed with inspiration that references the iconic outerwear brand [The North Face](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-junya-watanabe-man). The Japanese label takes the classic down jacket by the latter brand and updates it in a style that is true to READYMADE.

The design is not made using technical fabrications like it normally does with The North Face. This time, the silhouette takes [repurposed vintage materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patagonia-retrox-jacket) and comes together in a patchwork detail to decorate the outer of the down jacket. There are some black colorblocking detail and blue shades to join as well. The variety of blue boasts patterns such as paisley from vintage bandanas that have been collected. It is then finished with a logo that reads "THE READYMADE."
