The first sighting of this “UniverseCity Jacket” was on the Kanye West Bear on Takashi Murakami’s album art for “Graduation” and the “Good Morning” animated music video. Recently a physical version of the jacket was seen worn by Kanye West himself during a performance. The colorway of the jacket differs from that of the animated version, but features the same details in lettering and imagery on the front, sleeves, and back. No word on availability of this item, but our best guess would be that it will be part of the Pastelle collection.

Aside from the usual Lacoste Stealth releases, it appears as though Lacoste are digging a bit deeper into their back-catalog to release two hits from the 80s. Being at opposite sides of the time spectrum, the Tennis Mid and its more contemporary style debuted in the late ’80s while the chunky Eclair earned its shine as a hard court model in the early part of the decade. An anticipated release date for August has been announced for the Tennis Mid however no word yet on the Eclair.
