The market’s been flooded with baseball jackets, but this one from Lacoste adds some great detailing, something we never tend to overlook. The knitted wool shell is in navy and is insulated with a diamond quilt lining. The classic ribbed baseball collar and the press stud closure are all standard baseball jacket details but this iconic piece of clothing is really topped off with the Lacoste crocodile on left chest.
‘Tis the season for warm fabrics. We’ve been so busy worrying about our bodies our heads haven’t gotten the deserved attention. Hypebeast turns us to Lacoste’s collection of wool mannish hats. Available in an array of subtle colorways, the hats are fitted with a woven band and trademark Lacoste embroidered logo. The collection is available now at ripe Japan.
Hypebeast gives us a closer look into the upcoming collaboration between Zaha Hadid Architects and Lacoste. The shoes take on a shape and design unlike anything else with bold and ultra-minimalistic lines. A comprehensive design philosophy can be seen below. The capsule for men and women will release in July of this year.

The man that revamped Lacoste’s vision as Creative Director of the French label has now ventured onto his own men’s line. Christophe Lemaire’s collection for Spring/Summer 2009 is redefines the fusion of eastern and western traditions, leaving silhouettes behind to create unisex pieces in a neutral, subtle colour palette with matt tones and typical Japanese materials from the 70s.
We don’t expect everyone to find the line appealing, but you can always respect a creative mind.
