SOULIVE was founded in 1992 in Kojima District, Okayama – otherwise known as Japan’s denim capital. With an aim to craft pieces that span generations, this brand utilises hand-worked and indigo dyed techniques – inspired by traditional costume and craft methods – to craft heritage apparel for a new era. Built in a patchwork construction from eight different patterned fabrics, this Arts & Crafts vest is a warming and contemporary take on a classic Japanese aesthetic. Padded with polyester, this lightweight gilet fastens with silver toned press studs and is finished with a duo of pockets and an elasticated trim to its hemline.
