Product Insights
Drôle de Monsieur’s Vase Havana Embroidered Sweatshirt, priced at 350 CAD and currently out of stock, is a 90s relaxed-fit sweatshirt in 100% cotton terry jersey that replaces logos with a dual-scale fine-art still-life embroidery: discreet on the front, bold on the back. The multicolor embroidery, detailed and durable thanks to Portuguese artisan craftsmanship, stays crisp and legible on the smooth terry face. The brand’s self-taught Dijon founders, who launched with a guerrilla presentation at Paris Fashion Week 2014 and align with Mike Tyson’s resilience, take an artistic risk that blends 70s still-life, 90s streetwear, and Tokyo influence. The looped terry interior breathes and wicks moisture for year-round wear, but the generous fit (size M half-chest 57 cm yields 15-18 cm ease) is a tradeoff for those accustomed to standard sizing.

- Sizing advice
- A 190 cm / 84 kg model wears size L for the intended relaxed fit; wearers under 180 cm will likely find M generous without excessive length.
- Size L measurements
- Size L measures 71 cm back length, 59 cm half-chest (approximately 118 cm full), 52 cm shoulder, and 67 cm sleeve.
- Estimated size S
- If the size chart begins at M, the consistent 2–3 cm increments suggest a size S would measure approximately 65 cm length and 55 cm half-chest, suiting slim builds or wearers under 170 cm.
