Contemporary Japanese label KAPITAL launches a duo of two-toned jacket designs as part of its "outlandish outerwear options" for Fall/Winter 2018. The new offerings take on the silhouette of the signature Kamakura Anorak Blouson — a piece that boasts extreme functionality with an avant-garde aesthetic.
The 60/40 two-toned jackets have an experimental construction that is made cheerfully engaging through vibrant coloring and bold prints. The silhouette includes an oversized collar, as well as "convertible closures and diverse set of pocketing." While the construction of the Kamakura Anorak Blouson is what gives the piece a functional and highly interesting vibe, the well-curated colors and patterns are the reason the two-toned jackets instantaneously capture the attention of consumers.
The piece is on sale for about $765 USD on KAPITAL's website, which is an accessible price, given the current retail market for contemporary outerwear.
