nanamica’s signature Cruiser Jacket has received some technical renovations. Over the weekend, the Japanese clothing label unveiled an all-new version of its flagship coat with Spiber’s Brewed Protein, a premium plant-based material that uses fermentation technology to provide a circular solution to protein fiber production.
Brewed Protein fibers can be manipulated to offer a “silk-like sheen and delicacy, a luxurious smooth feel akin to cashmere, or the loftiness of high-quality wool,” according to the brand. Thanks to the material’s plant-based build and intricate fermentation process, it significantly reduces environmental and animal welfare impacts.
The silhouette itself builds on the original Cruiser Jacket, with a one-hand snap closure on the front and a removable hood that can be worn as a stand collar. Patch and flap pockets, meanwhile, boast hand-warming functions with double-layer constructions, and a security pocket lives on the left chest. Rounding out the design details, the design is fitted with a substantial body width that can be adjusted at the hem.
nanamica’s Cruiser Jacket with Spiber’s Brewed Protein is now available to shop on the brand’s webstore and its New York shop, located at 123 Wooster St, New York, NY 10012, for $1,600 USD. Take a look at the design in the gallery above.
