Sublabel JohnUNDERCOVER stems from the [iconic UNDERCOVER streetwear brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5) and it recently dropped a captivating coat design inspired by [Joy Division](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasures-and-reebok-1). The outerwear design boasts a painting that directly references the rock band's 1980 album, 'Licht and Blindheit.' The painting itself was created by French artist 'Jean-Francois Jambol' and it features a hooded silhouette that looks off into a scenic mountain view.

The jacket mimics that same design through the outerwear's structure, with the hood featuring adjustable drawstrings. the front of the design spotlights the hooded figure and the color palette is exactly the same as the painting. The coat is constructed from 100% cotton materials and has zipper enclosures. Some elements include adjustable cuffs, a fishtail hem, and frontal flap pockets.
