When someone’s as talented and handsome as Michael B. Jordan, you want to know everything about them. How tall? Favourite drink? If they had all the time in the world, what show would they binge watch? Well, where Wikipedia fails, Coach jumps in to save they day. As part of their partnership with the actor, the American brand just launched a collaborative collection reflecting personal interests and style of Michael B. Jordan. Upgrading him from a menswear ambassador to a design partner, Coach’s Creative Director Stuart Vevers worked with the star of Black Panther on unisex ready-to-wear, footwear and bags. Inspired by Naruto, B. Jordan’s personal favourite manga series, the pieces carry a sense of utilitarianism. But there’s no need to prioritise function over fashion – as seen in these pieces, the two can work perfectly together when put in the right hands.
And don’t you think this is just about printing a few tees and calling it a day – there’s a full autumnal wardrobe including heavy outerwear, chunky hiking boots and fanny packs and backpacks printed with the motif of a shuriken as the collab’s logo. Whether you’re going to run into the woods, walk down your local street or just sit on your couch watching a full season of Naruto, it’s totally up to you. But you better shop the collection asap – it’s bound to sell out…
You can shop the Coach x Michael B. Jordan collection online and in selected stores.
