Highsnobiety turns us to Comme des Garcons Junya Watanabe MAN’s collaboration with The North Face to craft a few pieces for the current F/W season. “Complementing their hunting and outdoor inspired offering of the season, they produced in collaboration with The North Face a vest in several colorways, as well as two coats. The North Face logos are embroidered tonal and nice details include corduroy and leather patches through out the collection”. Like the pieces? You can grab them now at Japanese-based Reinforce.

There was pandemonium today in Manhattan at all four major H&M locations.  People were all running around looking for their sizes, and most were probably disappointed.  Check out the shots over at Racked for full coverage.

Anyone remember the collection Roberto Cavalli did for H&M last year?  Well, the giant retailer’s being rewarded with a collection by COMMES des GARCONS.  The stock is likely to disappear within hours of release just like the Cavalli line did, but with the pricing controversy forming over the upcoming collection, maybe it won’t.

The line drops on November 13th, while Japan gets an early preview a week or two earlier.  The collection for H&M features a by-their standards conservative measure of avant-garde styling, perfect for the mainstream crowd the giant retailer attracts.

Check out the shots of the men’s collection after the jump.
