For Sale – Craig Green SS2015 Quilted Padded Laced Workwear Jacket.

Craig Green’s quilted laced padded jacket is one of the most important garments of contemporary menswear, a piece that has transcended the runway to become a true archive icon. First unveiled in his Spring/Summer 2015 collection, the jacket captures everything central to Green’s design language: protection, vulnerability, ritual, and the collective power of uniform. Built from geometric quilted panels, lightly padded for both structure and mobility, it reads like armor yet moves like a second skin. Its fastening system, cotton lace ties threaded across the front, sides, and sleeves, rejects traditional closures, instead creating a sense of restraint and connection that feels almost ceremonial. This substitution of lace for hardware is key: it transforms what could have been a functional jacket into something charged with symbolism, blurring the line between utility and sculpture. The silhouette itself is stripped-back and uniform-like, boxy yet elegant, free from overt branding or ornamentation, and rendered in solid tones like black, navy, khaki, or white. The austerity is intentional, allowing the form, materials, and ideas to speak louder than any surface decoration. When shown on the runway, it stunned critics and audiences alike, hailed as both wearable and conceptual, pragmatic yet poetic. Stocked by pioneering retailers such as Dover Street Market, it quickly became a sought-after piece for collectors, an instant signifier of Green’s contribution to modern design. Today, it’s remembered not just as a jacket but as a manifesto: a garment that articulated how clothing can function as protection while carrying deep emotional weight, how menswear can be uniform and sculpture, shield and statement, all at once. In an era when techwear and utilitarian aesthetics have become trends, Green’s quilted laced padded jacket stands apart as the blueprint, a piece that anticipated the movement and elevated it into something timeless, spiritual, and unforgettable.
