Han Kjobenhavn's Winter Trench

You can tell when a brand has serious menswear credentials; they cast random old guys or Jason Dill as the model in their lookbooks. For instance with Supreme and Jason Dill this could be taken as the New York Skate brand of nauseating over hype sending out a message that they are with all intents and purposes still a New York skate brand. Part of me is thinking that maybe Jason Dill and James Jebbia or someone are bros that go around calling each other by their first names: “Hey Jason Dill wanna come throw Supreme stickers out of the window of my car as we drive through New York?” with the following response: “Ahh James Jebbia it’s like you read my mind!”.

The other brand that has done this that has made me think that the clothes are probably better than they are is Han Kjobenhavn. They make shades that make me want to be the kind of dickhead that wears shades all the time. I’d never take them off. Nor would I take off this bad boy winter trench coat that retails for 5500DK. I had no idea what that actually converts to in GBR but I checked and it’s £611.25. I assume that shipping would be free. Also, and I’m presuming here, I think that DK stands for Dansk Krone and that’s a few letters short of Dank Krony. Shotgun that that’s my new hip hop stage name.

The old guy in this shot is noticeably not Jason Dill though. I hope that he has some immense back story and one of the Han Kjobenhavn guys had to talk him in to doing the look book and that he wouldn’t accept money but instead demanded something irritatingly odd.
