Batten down. Our Short Parka is inspired by vintage puffers. The name of the game here is utility, so this practical piece is loaded with functional details: a hidden 2-way Vislon zipper, plenty of pockets, a drawcord hem and Velcro cuffs to block out the elements, and a full hood with a cowl to keep your neck toasty. Speaking of toasty…the exterior is a chic citron ripstop, made by the experts at Olmetex (a world-renowned mill established in 1954 in Italy’s Como region). Ripstop is a military innovation, often used in uniforms and parachutes — it’s woven using a special technique that creates a fine crosshatch pattern, making it both lightweight and incredibly resistant to tearing. The down filling will keep you warm and toasty during the depths of winter.
