BEAMS PLUS X J.Crew fighter blouson

BEAMS PLUS has been designing distinctive, heritage-inspired styles since it was founded in 1999 by BEAMS, one of Japan's most admired lifestyle retailers. BEAMS PLUS creates original pieces that draw from authentic Americana style, bringing these timeless designs to a new generation. Our exclusive collection combines and plays with prep and uniform aesthetics, which results in familiar-yet-unique pieces. This sturdy ripstop cotton canvas jacket offers plenty of room to move, inspired by jackets worn by firefighters. On an actual firefighter's jacket, the stripes you see would be reflective—but since this one is strictly civilian-issue, they're reworked to be reminiscent of collegiate styles like the varsity sweaters you'd find on '50s and '60s campuses. The rounded collar can be worn down or fastened around your neck for extra warmth. You'll also find internal elastic cuffs to cut down on drafts, as well as generously sized pockets for your necessities.
