Hul Le Kes Monet Jacket Blanket Wool
Hul Le Kes Monet Jacket Blanket Wool, a heavy duty winter vest made from upcycled wool by Arnhem-based studio Hul Le Kes.
Crafted from vintage wool blankets, each Monet Jacket is a one-of-a-kind piece. Finished with deadstock ribbed bindings, every detail is chosen to complement the character of the original fabric. Small repairs by Hul Le Kes's Recovery Studio honour the life of the material while ensuring lasting comfort. Carefully assembled at Hul Le Kes Manufacturing Studio in Arnhem, the Netherlands.
The vintage blanket wool used by Hul le Kes for the Monet Jacket is made using the upcycling of post-consumer and post-production waste, a process in which great resources can be found for re-using fabrics. This is also means that fabric stock and fabric options are limited. For the Monet Jacket, this means that each color you see comes in 1 specific size: ROSE in size 1/Small, SEAGREEN in size 2/Medium and Blue in size 3/Large. Keep in mind that this jacket fits roomy, intended to have a relaxed fit in every day wear.
