Look Book | Coach X Michael B. Jordan
Believe it!! Anime & manga have really hit the mainstream these last few months, what with UNIQLO releasing their hugely successful Shonen Jump & Sailor Moon UT tshirt collaborations; both selling out within days of launch.
The latest to join the manga rush is Coach with their first-of-its-kind creative collaboration with actor, producer and first global face of Coach menswear, Michael B. Jordan. Inspired by his cultural influences and community, his love of Naruto, and his passion for bringing unique voices to the forefront, this unisex ready-to-wear, footwear and bag collection is Jordan’s first foray into fashion design, guided by the expertise of Coach Creative Director, Stuart Vevers.
Created in partnership with VIZ Media, the collection combines Coach craftsmanship with Jordan’s affinity for functional fashion and graphic codes from the world of Naruto.
Product ranges from parkas, jean jackets and pullovers to backpacks, utility packs and hybrid sneaker boots. Infused with technical details like removable sleeves, tactical straps and elastic closures, it also features imagery of characters from Naruto, as well as the series’ trademark “eye” motifs reimagined with Coach’s Retro C graphic.
The Coach x Michael B. Jordan collection is now available in select Coach stores across Canada and at coach.com
