Dutch fashion label BOTTER pushes the boundaries in terms of fashion versatility with the launch of its new Denim Trouser Jacket. The new piece breaches the common concept of reversed jackets, but instead, the black jacket is crafted from a pair of [oversized jeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grey-bandits-midtown-denim-jacket).

The most notable feature about the design is that it can be worn as a jacket or as pants, delivering transitional flare. Under the fly area, there is a hidden front button enclosure -- when transformed, the leg area turns into sleeves. On the back, there is a branded patch stitched together with white stitching accents throughout as a contrasting touch. The [hybrid Denim Trouser Jacket design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/columbia-csc1938-dually-mountain-outerchange) is now available for purchase online at [SSENSE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeansified-object).
