uniform experiment, a Japanese label that crafts high-end apparel, partnered with James Grose, a premium leather clothing specialist that's based in London, for its Fall/Winter 2016 collection.
The collaborative effort is shown most prominently on a leather jacket that's included in the series, which flaunts a quality make that's immediately evident to any who see it. Adorned with just the right amount of zippers to give it a bit more diversity, the jacket from the premium leather clothing company is a timeless piece that's well worth the investment.
In order to make the joint effort clear, uniform experiment includes James Grouse's branding on a label within the lining, which is covered in a dreamy star pattern. Also included in the collection are a number of fleece pieces with furry black accents, as well as leather and pinstripe pants.
