Vintage military clothing is the base of Lucky Brand’s new capsule collection.
The Authentic Brands Group-owned denim brand released its third Upcycled by Lucky Brand range last week, giving items like M-65 field jackets a second life. Each style is a one-of-a-kind original piece that has been hand-dyed, hand-painted or re-crafted.
The collection includes a military pant with multiple color-contrasting pockets and an Army muscle tee with hand-braided details on the side. A cropped button-down shirt featured painted tropical motifs.
An upcycled quilted M-65 field bomber jacket comes in autumnal colors like rose quartz, purple, army green and variations of olive. The jackets are made with refurbished M-65 surplus materials. An oversized, slouchy bag is also made with patchwork M-65 surplus materials.
The limited-edition collection is available now on Lucky Brand’s website and retails for $79.50-$249.
Lucky Brand unveiled its first upcycled collection in May 2022. The collection married repurposed denim with vintage materials like silk, lace and African indigo wax cloth.
A second collection dropped last September, offering women’s and men’s upcycled items, some of which were created from deadstock. The selection encompassed rock ’n’ roll-inspired denim items, leather jackets and band tees.
