【OVERVIEWS】
This black sleeveless vest comes from Yohji Yamamoto POUR HOMME, sitting somewhere between a formal waistcoat, sleeveless jacket, and stand-collar vest. It retains the tailored structure of the menswear line while carrying Yohji’s usual sense of restraint, simplicity, and subtle detailing.

The body is made from black wool fabric with a refined tailored appearance. Rather than feeling like a casual cotton vest, it is closer to a formal waistcoat or dress vest in texture and construction. The silhouette is clean and structured, with a vertical row of buttons down the front that creates a sharp central line and visually elongates the upper body.

The most distinctive feature is the stand collar. Compared with the V-neck or lapel styles commonly seen on traditional waistcoats, this piece uses a short standing collar, giving it a more Eastern, uniform-like, and restrained atmosphere. It is not overly decorative, but the collar gives the simple black vest a clear visual identity.

The lining features a light-colored striped fabric, creating contrast against the all-black exterior. Although mostly hidden when worn, it becomes visible when the front is opened or during movement, adding a subtle collectible detail. The back also includes an adjustable waist strap, allowing the silhouette to sit closer to the body while maintaining the functional language of a traditional formal vest.

This piece is suitable for those who appreciate Yohji Yamamoto’s black tailoring, stand-collar design, clean layering, and gender-neutral styling. It can be worn on its own with wide trousers or skirt pants for a sharp sleeveless look with an Eastern mood, or layered over a shirt, turtleneck, or under a long coat as the structural core of an all-black outfit. For anyone looking to add a distinctive Yohji-style vest between formalwear and daily styling, this is a practical and recognizable piece.

【TEXTILE】
・Made with the iconic textile (wool gabardine, commonly known as wrinkled gabardine) that has been used since the brand's founding. By applying a strong grain/wrinkle effect to the threads during the sorting stage, we create a unique texture and subtle luster that has supported the brand for over 40 years.
・The strength of GABA is that it can be worn anytime in spring, summer, fall, or winter due to its overwhelming durability, and you can freely enjoy set-up styles that span the seasons.
