    Esemplare is an Italian brand that makes ill jackets with military design cues, but their name is ambiguous at best. Ever been at a nice restaurant with a new girl looking over the appetizer menu, and she’s like “Lets order the Esemplare, I LOOOOOOOOVEEEE Esemplare” and you’re like “Yea same.  We should definitely roll with…

    Without the hood this look like a women’s jacket: Pic via Oki-Ni. Quality materials, and quality looking construction that we have come to expect from A.P.C..  Just do yourself a favor and keep the hood on if you’re a man.  If all else fails if you remove the hood make sure you have a really wide neck…
