A Rebel At Heart &
In The Park
Gucci, Givenchy, Marc Jacobs And More, For The Tender Tough Guy

Isn’t every rebel a bit of a romantic? For the tender tough guy, a denim jacket does what a leather jacket can’t—more soft than supple, more starched than stiff, it’s the outerwear that has all the pathos of needing just a little extra layer during the too-short seasons. With one kind of outfit, a denim jacket can evoke hard work; with another, it’s an automatic afternoon off. It’s the perfect canvas for a slate of buttons accrued by wearing your heart on your sleeve, or maybe the only adjustment you’ll make is the faded wash of a blue that’s been worn as hard as it’s been loved. However you wear it over the years, just like romance, the only certainty is that it’ll change.

Model wears AGOLDE jacket.
Creamy like a cloud, this slightly cropped version is a pristine interpretation of a jean jacket—even rarer than the traditional, the pearlescent color is the perfect look for catching those last rays of summer.

Model wears Givenchy jacket.
Don’t look now, but that logo on your back is catching everyone’s eye. Printed above and between your shoulder blades, the Givenchy name is that little something extra for an elevated expression of black denim.

Model wears Gucci jacket.
Light light blue, early morning sky blue, faded into baby blue, this Gucci jacket is the ultimate in terms of shade and texture. Cross your arms to hold those interlocking G’s safe in the crook of your elbow.

Model wears Marc Jacobs jacket.
Bat your eyelashes once, twice, and each time will reveal a new detail on this Marc Jacobs oversized jean jacket—the turquoise base accompanies sparkly smiles (your mood on your sleeve) with pink accents and hints of lavender, for that cotton-candy cotton-denim feeling.

Model wears Off-White jacket.
A landscape rises from the hem of this jacket—look again, and doesn’t it seem as though the green, white, and blue could be a mountain looming over a forest? No matter the terrain, this Off-White jacket could be the abstract wilderness you take wherever you go.

Model wears Opening Ceremony jacket.
A jacket with lots of pockets and zips gives all your necessities a little privacy: one place to stash your keys, another for your headphones, and then if you’ve got a friend or feel the need to test your flexibility, take advantage of the back pocket that’s literally on your back. Who would ever think to look there?
