Remember those Carhartt chore coats from last year that were reworked by Junya Watanabe? Awesome. I guess he has been doing "reconstructed workwear" for a few years, collaborating with iconic (usually American) brands and resewing, overdying, adding -generally fantastigating the items. The British shopping site Yvgeny has a bunch of these (and other v cool) pieces and they have kindly given permission to reproduce their shots below. Thx Eugene. Yes, pricetags in the high NorthPole region. Further reading over at Interview.
