To create a distinct premium offering, this version features a one-button closure and no vents, resulting in a cleaner and more formal look than the original. The use of contrasting fabric for the lapels and pockets adds a bespoke, high-fashion element not always present in the reference product. By offering the jacket in a range of bold, statement jewel tones, it caters to a fashion-forward consumer looking for a unique and eye-catching piece.
