Porter Classic

I don't know why but I love these kind of obscure, asymmetrical garments. They remind me of some sort of hard labourer from the '20s, a good look in my opinion. This sweater/jacket/shirt from Porter Classic, is especially patchy and different, but good. From this single photo I don't really know what to call this piece but it certainly looks as though it has plenty of uses. It'd look good as a shirt done all the way up over a tee, as a light jacket over a button-up with a vest or sweater, or maybe even as a sport coat with shirt and tie. Porter Classic is a new line by Katsuyuki Yoshida (of Yoshida & Co. fame) and his son Leo. As well it is a small shop specializing in vintage clothing and antique luggage. The shop is a unique space located underneath train tracks in Tokyo's Ginza district, an area famous for it's high end department stores and luxury flagship stores.
