"Y's" 90's Draped lapel wool long coat

"Y's"
Late 90's wool long coat with elongated lapels

From Y's, the brand crafted by Yohji Yamamoto, we would like to introduce a standout piece featuring a design with beautiful vertical lines.

Featuring deep black wool and wide lapels that drape long like a scarf, this coat creates a refined presence, expressing a quiet individuality that is distinctly Y's within restrained detailing.

The outer fabric is made with 100% wool. Its calm, understated texture clearly defines the outline of the long length, while the body—flowing straight from shoulder to hem—creates just the right amount of ease against the body. Although the listed size is S, it forms a vertically elongated silhouette that cannot be captured by numbers alone.

The front features a classical three-button design, with vertical pockets placed at the waist to keep the ornamentation restrained while providing practicality. The back is neatly arranged around a center seam, so it delivers a poised impression not only from the front but also from the back. Inside, it is fully lined with smooth cupro for easy slip-on wear over knitwear or jackets, and its meticulous construction—typical of Japanese craftsmanship—is also a major attraction.

In addition to the brand name woven in a serif script in white thread on the black ground, there is a separate alphabet-sized tag, a product code, as well as the old JIS washing care label. A concise quality tag written in both French and English can also be seen. Since these specifications align with the product composition of the time, this piece can be identified as an archive from around the late 1990s.

Without relying on overtly assertive decoration, this coat’s added value lies in how it creates character through the length of the lapels and the way the fabric falls. It is recommended not only for those seeking a black coat that is not swayed by trends, but also for anyone who wants to naturally incorporate a sense of mode and tension into everyday styling.

For styling, pairing wide slacks with a lightweight high-gauge knit accentuates a poised silhouette. Or, throw it over faded denim or a plain cut-and-sew, and you can enjoy this archive piece as part of modern everyday wear without feeling overly formal. By making use of the long draping lapels, even a light look with the front left open will beautifully showcase the design.

This is a wool long coat that forms the core of your wardrobe—quietly enveloping Y's aesthetic sensibility and the spirit of the era. We encourage you to take this opportunity.
