Jeong.

The portrait captures that. The brown leather aviator helmet — inherited from his grandfather, who flew light agricultural planes in the Russian Far East — with the pilot goggles on top, the worn leather and visible repairs. The shearling jacket turned up to the ears: black leather, white lining, the first thing he bought with his own park paycheck. Underneath, a cornflower-blue sweater his grandmother gave him. He has three identical ones (Halmoni was practical: if something worked, she bought three). The look is direct, unadorned, from someone used to watching a long time before speaking.

Jeong is twenty-one. He's been flying environmental surveillance drones from eighteen in Barabash, Primorsky Krai, a town of three thousand people in the heart of the Amur leopard's range. One hundred and thirty individuals in the wild according to the latest census. Seventeen years ago there were nineteen on the entire planet. He recognizes each leopard by its rosettes without software — he draws them by hand in a notebook he shares with no one. Every animal has a unique spot pattern, like fingerprints. Researchers with PhDs use image-recognition programs. Jeong uses his eyes and a pencil he has to warm between his fingers every two minutes so the tip doesn't snap at twenty-four below zero.

If someone asks about his method, he answers in three sentences and then goes quiet. If they press, he changes the subject. His way of caring works the same: he turns the stove on so his roommate comes home to a warm place, leaves soup outside the door of whoever has a fever, keeps team birthdays in a notebook and shows up with a bag of warm pirozhki without saying a word. Invisible and precise.

The sweatshirt carries the portrait printed over the whole surface — all-over print that wraps the full garment. It has a crew neck, ribbed cuffs. In [Jeong's biography](https://www.yagopartal.com/animal-kinhood/jeong/) are the details of his story: the koryo-saram heritage, the notebook where he draws each leopard's rosettes by hand, the shared apartment in Barabash with the window open in winter.

A sweatshirt to throw on without thinking. For the morning walk when it's still cool, the afternoon on the sofa, the quick coffee run when you don't want to decide what to wear. It works as a mid-layer in winter or an outer layer in spring and fall — the kind of thing you end up reaching for three days out of five because it goes with everything and asks nothing in return. Fabric and fit details are in **Fabric, fit and construction**. Sizing is in **Size guide**.
