James Grose x marka for ARKnets NEO MANILA JACKET, Black
Design
The “NEO MANILA JACKET” is based on the “NEW MANILA”, one of James Grose's representative models, with a marka-like essence. The current “NEW MANILA” is a double riders jacket that follows the details of the archive design, but with a modern feel. This jacket has been made into a more modern silhouette by changing the lining to BLACK and making it slightly roomier. In addition, two waist buckles have been added and the front zip has been changed to an ALBERT ZIPPER with a strong presence to create a vintage look. In addition, the gas tank cover flap on the underside of the front zipper has been eliminated, and the size and position of each pocket has been adjusted to create a sleeker look.
Recommendations
A triple collaboration between James Grose, ARK and marka.
This jacket is a classic motorcycle jacket with a double collar, commonly known as a “long jacket,” which evokes a sense of British history. The current “NEW MANILA” is a design designed for riding motorcycles in a forward leaning posture, but made easier to incorporate into everyday life. The new “NEO MANILA” model is a riders' jacket that has been rearranged with the image of riding a motorcycle or bicycle on the street, making it even easier to use as street wear. Although the riders' jacket has a strong impression of ruggedness, its simple and lean design is unique and is recommended for a first double riders' jacket.

HORSE LEATHER
Horse leather with a silver surface, tanned with a mix of tannin and chrome with a higher ratio of tannin. The process called “beating” is applied to make it so soft and comfortable that it is hard to believe it is horse leather. Using highly water-resistant dyes, the original expression and characteristics of the skin, such as wrinkles, scars, and vein stripes, are also expressed as they are. Depending on the wearer's physique and movements, wrinkles, bites, and luster are easily produced when the leather is cared for, and as it is worn, it becomes a unique piece of clothing that is uniquely yours.
