The Air-Holding Coat
Wool 55% / Linen 45%
Natural Ivory
A generously proportioned double-breasted coat, designed to feel as though you are wrapped in air.
With its top buttons fastened, the collar transforms into a classic stand collar. Despite its ample volume, the carefully considered three-dimensional pattern creates a beautifully shaped silhouette, avoiding any sense of bulkiness.
The wool-linen fabric is a densely woven gabardine, offering a beautiful balance of structure and softness. The linen yarn comes from Normandy, France, while the wool yarn is sourced from the Shetland Islands of Scotland. The fabric is woven and finished in Japan.
The pattern has been carefully developed to create a gentle, beautiful drape, allowing the fabric to move naturally with the body.
At the collar is a one-of-a-kind ceramic decorative button by ceramic artist TESORO. Designed as a removable change button, it can be freely detached and reattached.
Each ceramic piece is individually handcrafted by the artist, so slight variations in shape and expression are part of its unique character. We hope you will enjoy the charm of owning a truly one-of-a-kind piece.

The natural shell buttons are used with their reverse sides facing outward, giving each button its own distinctive appearance. Due to the nature of the material, the outer surface of the shell may occasionally peel. This is a natural characteristic and not considered a defect.
A Note from the Designer
A generously proportioned coat, as though wrapped in air. This is AS YET UNNAMED.'s winter coat.
We wanted to create a coat that feels effortlessly beautiful the moment you put it on, while remaining exceptionally comfortable to wear. Together with our pattern maker, we spent many rounds exploring its volume, proportions and silhouette until we arrived at this design.
The natural ivory wool-linen fabric is one I have wanted to work with for a very long time. Perhaps ever since I first started making clothes, I had been dreaming of creating a garment in a fabric just like this. I am so happy to have finally brought that vision to life.
The overlapping front creates a reassuring sense of warmth and comfort. Another pleasure of this design is its versatility: wear it open for a relaxed look, or fasten all the buttons to transform it into a classic stand-collar coat.
A special coat where a rustic sensibility meets quiet refinement.
At the collar, a one-of-a-kind ceramic change button by TESORO adds a small, distinctive accent.
