Two weeks ago,
we let you know about a mysterious new jacket on the way from Columbia Sportswear Company. At that time, it was more of a tease since nothing official had been announced. Now, the official confirmation that we've been waiting on has finally come. Just like with previous
Star Wars jacket releases, Columbia will be offering the
Star Wars Empire Crew Parka both online, starting at midnight (Eastern), and in stores on Friday, December 7th. Customers will be limited to 1 per transaction.
Features include:
• “Darth Vader with flames” embroidered chest patch is a replica of the emblem worn by the original crew
• Customizable name plate and “Norwegian Unit” patch allow you to identify yourself as a member of the crew
• Geographical coordinates of the Hardangerjøkulen Glacier film site are incorporated into the lining
• Sleeve stripes offer heightened visibility, while a rectangular
Star Wars logo patch adds authenticity
Each jacket will retail for $500.00 and will be available in sizes ranging from XXS to XXL.
Check out the official product page
right here which includes a list of Columbia stores that will be offering these jackets this week.
Additionally, a very limited amount of jackets will be signed by Mark Hamill with the proceeds going to charity only available at stores in Orlando, FL, New York, NY, Seattle, WA & Portland, OR.
