New Clair Obsur Expedition 33 Coat

Without a doubt, Clair Obscur Expedition 33 was the game of the year for 2025. Breaking records and sales and hearts, this game rose from an indie game to a worldwide phenomenon. I could not resist designing for something that profoundly defined the next level of gaming narrative, gameplay, and story. 

I chose the coats worn by the characters as I really enjoyed their uniformed look but each still distinctly different to match to their own personality and style. I wanted to incorporate as much details as possible to show it is an Expeditioners coat, and keep it casual enough for modern day wear. The coat design I ended up with leans most toward Gustave. 

In the beginning of the game, there's a small scene of the characters discussing Gustave's sleeves on how he prefers to keep it rolled up. In real life, coat sleeves aren't generally rolled up since as outerwear, it's meant to stay in place and keep the wearer warm. The material is also thicker, making folding it up a cumbersome task. I opted to add a button closure at the sleeves so it can be opened up and folded easier, and also added a sleeve strap that can hold the folded up sleeve in place. I hope it is something Gustave would have approved!
