I saw this in one of the LV stores today and thought maybe getting a creative designer jacket like this would be interesting. What's your thuoght on its design? I really like the woven staple on the lapel but not sure about the label on the sleeve. Some thats details that are not shown in the pictures are: a stitched letter "L" on the upper button, and its single vent is sewed together by a letter "V"

FYI, the label on the sleeve is meant to be removed.

Looks bad on the model but not bad on its own. I wouldn't spend the money on it given the superior products you can likely get from others for less, but it's not a bad jacket if you prefer to have the LV. As others already noted, that label on the sleeve is probably just attached with a couple loose stitches and is intended to be removed prior to wear. I'm not sure why they left the tag on for the picture of the model wearing it, but I'm sure there are also a lot of people who (a) don't know that the label is meant to be removed and/or (b) would leave it on anyway to make sure people know they're wearing LV.

The vent is basted. It’s meant to be removed.

I see nothing remotely interesting or appealing about this jacket.

if you’re looking for something designer and funky, look at Etro. It’s not my thing but the bold paisley pattern and colors make them stand out.

lol I did not see that the LV logo was all over this jacket at least in the first pic. looks like something soulja boy would wear to the BET awards. the second one looks fine but like others have said a plethora of better value elsewhere

I honestly didn't look closely enough the first time to notice that either. Terrible.
