“I’m sittin‘ in the classroom learnin the rules and it says you can’t do graffiti in schools!”
That’s why we lead double lives! Creativity starts pumping late at night. Nights are spent drawing, making plans to go spraying. At the end, we have the trains moving through the whole city as free public galleries. Graffiti writers – the inventors of marketing.
Re-issue of Military M-65 Field Coat in cooperation with M-51 Field Coat. I extracted the most ingenious ideas from these revered garments and brought them all together in a field jacket. Marshallers in charge of guiding planes often fixed reflectors to the jackets themselves, to help fighter bombers or P-51 Mustang land safely on board the ship and get them into port. Without reflectors, the marshallers were in danger of being run over by the plane. Evidence from my clothing archive clearly shows that the reflectors had been attached by the soldiers themselves. In situations like that, neat seams are the last thing on your mind. And because reflector tape was at a premium, the 5cm tapes were cut in half, to 2.5 cm wide, to double the mileage. The M-65 Field Coat is recycled old jeans. Finished for an authentic denim look. 3×1 Selvedge Right Hand Twill. The denim was produced by an Italian textile weaver, transforming finest old cotton into new upcycled selvedge denim fabric with Blue Seed Organic.

Political Terms Story
In political terms, war clothing has no positive associations. Because the arms industry is awash with money, military clothing is made to be timeless and functional down to the last and tiniest detail. Clothing, not fashion. This M65 jacket actually won awards. Whatever. This is engineering work, the only type I like. Of course the US military pays out huge amounts for product placement to see the products worn by actors in movies. International marketing. “Taxi Driver”, “Rambo I” and “Terminator I”. The idea behind my stripped-back product modernization and styling is to restore positive associations to the “Originals – Updated”. But if you poke the bear you’ve got to be ready for its bite. The United States Armed Forces and M65 Jacket (1965) bears the responsibility for every murder in Vietnam because it was worn there. US soldiers were told to “shoot anything that moves”. “Body Count”. Rapper ICE-T formed the band “Body Count” in 1992 and whipped up a scandal with the track “Cop Killer”, which was banned immediately. By the US Government. Irony?
