CHARCOAL STAND COLLAR UNIFORM JACKET

Convertible collar to switch between a mandarin stand-up and a micro notch lapel Wrinkle resistant This is the ultimate "Honor Roller" status symbol. We pulled the blueprint from the 1970s—specifically the stand-collar gyobok our dads wore (if you’ve seen the movie Chingu, you know the lore). This is our official staff uniform at the Hester Street flagship, built for the "student of life" who’s permanently in progress but still needs to look like the final boss. It’s a suiting jacket that refuses to act like one. We used a bio-washed cotton-nylon blend that’s basically wrinkle-proof, meaning you can jam it in your bag, pull it out for the function, and still look sharp without a steamer. The convertible collar is the real cheat code: button it all the way up for that sharp mandarin stand, or fold it down into a micro-lapel when you’re feeling more casual.
