KUON, a fashion label that's based in Japan and headed by designer Shinichiro Ishibashi, only first debuted its introductory collection back in the fall of last year, however, now its back with a fresh line of patchwork menswear.
In addition to the many denim looks, KUON also includes a number of corduroy pieces -- using the structured material to make up pants and jackets. The patchwork menswear meanwhile varies quite a bit in style, however the majority take on business-casual silhouettes.
That said, there's also a wide range of life wear cuts, such as zip-up sweaters, crewnecks and torn jeans. Overall, KUON's second collection has a relaxed vibe that's well-suited to consumers who have an appreciation for rugged statement apparel.
