The paradigm of Suzuki’s designs can be situated by tracing the fashion milieux through which he moved prior to launching Engineered Garments: an early brush with mountaineering gear; the ‘designer and character’ brand boom spawned by the popularity of Comme des Garçons; finally, the analog nature of working as a buyer for Nepenthes boutiques in the early 90's. The result is a literal patchwork of complementary patterns—madras, polka dot, floral, Glen plaid—carried by menswear pieces fabricated in taffeta, ripstop nylon, twill, or satin. Year-on-year, Engineered Garments conflates everything American as it teases the codes of Depression-era suiting and mid-70's mil spec detailing into an aesthetic that, through its jarring incompatibility with its historical reference points, is utterly at home in the hyper-recursive present. In excellent used condition. Worn twice. Please see pictures for details.
