To commemorate the opening of the eagerly-awaited Ron Herman store in Japan, the LA-based retailer collaborated with mastermind Japan on a set of down outerwear. Taking a detail-oriented approach, the pieces were styled in a distinctive America meets Japan aesthetic, with mastermind’s staple black on black vibe taking center stage. Now available exclusively at Ron Herman Japan. (via honeyee)

Manufactured and sold exclusively in Japan, the FUCT- SSDD (Same Shit Different Day) collection is inspired by classic, traditional American style. One of the staple items in the collection is the “Kowalski Jacket”, clearly referencing the 1971 cinema classic Vanishing Point. 100% nylon, windproof fabric, snap button front storm flap with inside zip, 2 exterior pockets and woven patch details are just a few of the features of the jacket. The jacket is available in two color ways, Matte Black and Royal Blue.

Once again an impressive piece by FUCT. Let’s hope the SSDD will make it into a couple of stores outside of Japan.

Many more detailed images of the FUCT SSDD Kowalski Jacket follow after the jump.

Japanese brand Affa just released a new down jacket as part of their Fall/Winter 2007 collection.

Aside from the solid black colorway with the red zipper, the other colorways have a 70’s feel, mainly due to the mix of colors on the upper.

Nexus VII, a brand that has been around for years already, is recently attracting our attention on a regular basis because of their smart and functional clothing. The brand always brings together innovative materials and mixes that with classic pieces, always with a bit of a twist. We already presented you the Gore-Tex pinstripe jackets that were released this season, here is now another highlight.
Nexus VII just released the Gore-Windstopper down jacket. It comes in blue and in black and features the same adjustable cuffs, like the Gore-Tex jacket. The subtle tonal logo application and satin inner lining make it a great piece to have for this season.

Here you see the latest Original Fake Fall/Winter 2007 jackets that just released at Sold Out. They got in the glossy down jacket, which features the Chomper design around the neck and also around the waist. The cuffs feature the iconic Kaws cross eyes. A great piece and perfect fusion of Kaws artwork and a Moncler jacket in terms of look. They also received the reversible Nubuck jacket, very subtle and classic overall. The Chomper Gore-Tex jacket that we presented already a few days ago is now also available there. Unfortunately the prices are as expected extremely high!

We had announced it to you when we presented the Wood Wood Fall/Winter 2007 collection – the Danish brand got together as well this season with Penfield to collaboration on a goose down jacket. The jacket is part of the Wood Wood F/W 2007 collection and comes in a nice dark colorway with hood. Details include the purple plaid inner lining and the heart patch on the outside of the jacket. In our opinion the strongest Penfield collaboration to date.
If the pricing on this jacket is as good as the usual Penfield jackets, then this is a definitely must have piece for the coming colder season. Check out the jacket after the jump.

Sold Out now received the new Original Fake Reversible Down Jackets. They come in black and grey and are clean on one side and feature a big design on the other side of the jacket. In terms of look they come close to Moncler and the quality and details are once again stunning. The price point of 270 Euros (like 3 OF t-shirts) does also not seem too crazy.
