When talking about this jacket, it is essential to mention that it was famously worn by the modern architect Le Corbusier.

Corbusier has had a major influence on modern architecture as an advocate of modernist architecture that emphasized rationality, using reinforced concrete and simple, smooth wall treatments without flashy decorations. He is also an architect who has had a major influence on contemporary Japanese architects such as Tadao Ando and Kengo Kuma. He placed importance on rationality and functionality in his own lifestyle, and is said to have embodied this attitude in his fashion. It is believed that he loved this leather jacket because he believed that fashion should be practical and functional. The Corbusier jacket is an item that symbolizes his ideas.
