At select road Hills stores in Japan, North Face Japan will release these Swallow Tail Jackets. Unlike the conservative materials used in the USA, these get a pinic table checkered pattern in two colors- black/white or red/white. Use your Japanese resources to track these down. via Honeyee
Part of Stussy Deluxe’s Spring/Summer 2009 collection are a couple of items created with kevlar coated material. Meant to keep you dry, the M-65 windbreaker jacket, 5-panel cap and the stadium jacket will do the job as the Spring showers come. All three pieces are available at The Reed Space.
Toronto’s Ken Chow brings another season from his Krane Man line of outerwear and accessories. The Elliot Anorak is another of his waxed cotton creations, partially lined with cotton chambray, with a classic mountain parka fit and plenty of pocket options, this jacket will keep you dry and comfortable in those summer squalls. Best of all, though, the jacket has two straps inside to allow the wearer to sling the piece on to their back like a backpack, or over a backpack, should the foul weather let up. Available at Roden Gray. via HyrCollective
