Reworked Denim Trucker with Obi Brocade Panels, Kimono Textile Patchwork and Signature COTÉ MER Sleeve Design
A striking Cote Mer reconstructed denim jacket that blends Japanese kimono textile culture with contemporary streetwear reconstruction.
This piece starts with a pale acid-wash denim trucker silhouette, then transforms it through bold appliqué work, dramatic sleeve reconstruction and a highly decorative obi-style brocade patchwork panel across the back. The result is a one-of-one jacket that feels part archive fashion, part wearable textile art.
With its oversized structure, statement sleeves and rich gold-toned woven inserts, this is a standout piece for collectors of Cote Mer, remake denim and Japanese streetwear.
Design Character
This jacket carries the layered, collage-like energy that defines the best Cote Mer work.
The washed denim base is contrasted by oversized black reconstructed sleeve panels printed with “COTÉ MER” in large white lettering. Both sleeves are interrupted with vivid kimono and obi textile inserts in orange, gold, green, ivory and pink, giving the piece a luxurious and intentionally mixed-material look.
The back is especially strong, featuring a rectangular panel of obi-inspired patchwork framed by two long exposed zippers. The brocade layout includes metallic gold fields, floral and fan-like motifs, and a green-and-silver crest-style motif that gives the jacket a distinctly Japanese decorative presence.
