I count at least 4 different patterns. Interesting concept. I like how they kept the front of the show black, and then used a contrasting lace color.
$128 at Stussy Chapter stores.

$575 for the M42 jacket, $365 for the pants, $600 for the down vest. Yea, no thanks. No wonder BBC owner Pharrell Williams can afford a $16.8M penthouse condo. He’s actually selling that one, but one can likely assume he’s moving into something more expensive.

At the beginning of the war, Army Air Corps members were issued the most badass jacket in the military, the leather A-2—which had been the standard leather flight jacket since 1931. In WWII, these jackets became a canvas for teenage flyers to express their rugged individuality. They’d get the backs painted, and often these images included the plane’s nickname and little bombs to tally how many missions the crew flew. On the front, personalized patches would often indicate one’s squadron or bomb group.
Very interesting stuff… make sure you read the whole history and check out more pictures over at Collectors Weekly.
They recommend these two books; American Flight Jackets, and Art of the Flight Jacket if you really want to go way down the flight jacket rabbit hole.
Although more than one jacket may have been painted with the same or similar designs, the nature of leather, how it wears, and the subtle differences in hand painting make each one unique.

You know one of their kids is pissed he can’t get his buddy on multi-player COD with him anymore.
I highly doubt their “armor” is even hard enough to stop rifle rounds. That would be hilarious if it was just mild steel. They will find that out rather quickly when they engage their first group of enemies. Their machine gun is apparently a Russian PKM 7.62mm.

You gotta respect the time it takes people to do stop-motion films. I definitely don’t have the patience for that. The editing would be the other half of the battle.

I’ve only had Disaronno a couple times, and I remember liking it. Even though I also like Maharishi (the camouflage pros), and LOVE camouflage print leather I have zero use for this product. Why the hell would you need a sleeve for your bottle anyway? OK fine, maybe it makes it look a bit nicer on the shelf, or provides a bit of protection when transporting. Tell me why you could possibly need one with a pocket, a pencil, a pen, and a 24 carat gold plated USB stick though? Do you often find yourself getting drunk writing rap lyrics down (alternating between pencil and pen), stuffing those rap lyrics in your bottle sleeve pocket. Remembering that you should always have a backup, so you find the nearest computer and type your lyrics in and save them to your douchebag style USB stick? If that explains an average night for you, you’re going to want to make sure you get in on this limited 50 piece release over at the Maharishi store in London (and other select stockists) on December 21st when this product drops.
The sleeve itself is made by Berlin, Germany brand BagJack if you want to check them out.
