Boston-based label Blauer USA continues its path of reinventing heritage pieces from its Nylolite range, which was first introduced last year. This year, the new Nylolite capsule still references militaristic and workwear designs, whilst giving a contemporary perspective to the unique Blauer history. In the label's earlier years, there were developments of uniforms and raincoats for the military and Massachusetts State Police. Fast forward to today, there is an incorporation of functional elements and practically designed garments at its core.
The newest Nylolite capsule is comprised of four men's and women's jackets infused with the label's signature precision and intricate care. The brand's lead designer Enzo Fusco and his team ensure that attention to detail is a priority. Similar to its previous range, the capsule sees quilted materials and cotton fabrics to deliver lightweight pieces that is suitable for layering.
