HISTORY
Produced for Autumn/Winter 1988, this leather coat originates from the early years of tricot COMME des GARÇONS, a line developed to reinterpret the maison’s avant-garde philosophy through more intimate, utilitarian garments. During the late 1980s, COMME des GARÇONS explored weight, protection, and reconstruction, applying traditional tailoring codes—such as double-breasted fronts—to heavy materials like leather, resulting in silhouettes that balanced severity with functionality.
