HISTORY
From Autumn/Winter 1998, General Research’s "For Left Handed" series explored utilitarian reinterpretations of classic tailoring. The Parasite Pocket line emphasized exaggerated, functional storage integrated seamlessly into structured garments, reflecting the brand’s interest in survivalist and military-influenced design. This heavy wool suit set combines workwear pragmatism with formal structure, situating it within General Research’s late-1990s output under Setsumasa Kobayashi.
