Badu Jacket

This jacket trades the traditional weight of a shearling coat for a high-pile polyester fleece, framed by rigid polyurethane piping that mimics the structural lines of a classic moto. The oversized, boxy cut and wide notched lapels create a dense, cocoon-like silhouette that sits heavily off the shoulders. It is a calculated exercise in texture, using the faux leather trim to break up the uniform brown fuzz and lend a sharper, more tailored finish to an otherwise relaxed piece of outerwear.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is constructed entirely from petroleum-based synthetics (polyester and polyurethane), which offer negligible breathability and a high potential for microplastic shedding. The reliance on synthetic polymers and a dry-clean-only requirement indicates a chemical-heavy production process that lacks the biocompatibility of natural fibers.
