This marks the brand's inaugural menswear capsule since it launched back in 2017. It started off drawing inspiration from fishermen's coats, which were made in seasonal iterations by hand in Kassel, Germany. The first menswear capsule features [technical materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jjjjound-x-descente) that make up the silhouettes. This includes oil cloth and rubber, detailed with glue-sealed seaming and marked with a serial number for a touch of uniqueness. The capsule also features a [padded cotton blend poplin jacket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5) and a shaw-collar gilet. There are also accessory options that come in the form of tote bags -- all of this is now available online at MATCHESFASHION.
