beautiful people and NANGA Create a Multi-Functional Down Jacket for Winter

Instead of owning several down jackets, beautiful people and NANGA propose one that serves the role of many in their sophomore collaboration.

This time, the pair has focused on solving the issue that many of us face when living in cities during winter: when it’s cold outside, but hot inside. When you frequently move between the two, your temperature is in a constant state of flux, leaving you warm and comfortable one minute, then unbearably hot and humid the next. beautiful people and NANGA’s solution is a multi-functional down jacket that can be worn six ways. Leveraging the Japanese label’s unique multi-layering system, which structurally connects two items, a vest and a blouson in this context, has led to a new type of downwear that allows you to adjust your perceived temperature to suit the ever-changing conditions, from morning to night, outdoors to indoors. Functional and practical, yes, but the duo has also created a piece of modular clothing that is easy on the eye, with interesting layers appearing depending on the configuration. Two jacket versions are available, featuring a cacophony of maleable colours, from green and grey to coyote brown and cream.

Release Details:
When? Friday, the 11th of October.
Where? beautiful people’s online store and directly managed stores, as well as NANGA’s online store.
