A collaborative effort with Dover Street Market resulted in a new line of [Chrome Hearts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silver-morning) jackets, which follow up a series that were made with [The Rolling Stones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/always-denim) and another that featured the branding of Virgil Abloh's OFF-WHITE label.

Made from leather, the latest Chrome Hearts jackets feature a durable design that's immediately eye-catching. This is especially true for two of the jackets, which have metallic silver and gold making up their torsos.

A third jacket does this differently, with a collage of graphics marking the sleeves. In addition to the Chrome Hearts jackets, the brand created a beanie with Dover Street Market as well. The exclusive pieces are available from [DSM's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vk-design-works-x-new-balance) Ginza store in Tokyo.
