NEEDLES and Rocky Mountain Featherbed Launch Iconic Down Collection

NEEDLES, a Japanese brand known for its innovative blend of sportswear and vintage menswear, has announced a collaboration with Rocky Mountain Featherbed. This partnership marks their first joint effort, introducing a reimagined version of the classic Western-yoke down series.

The new collection includes the signature Yoke Down Jacket and Down Vest, which feature a striking design alteration. Instead of the traditional single-piece leather yoke, the garments showcase photo prints of red-crowned cranes set against picturesque sunsets and snowy landscapes. This artistic twist aims to infuse a fresh perspective into a well-loved style.

Both the jacket and vest are constructed using high-quality materials. The outer and inner linings are made from 70 denier nylon taffeta, while the padding consists of 700 fill power European water-repellent down. These choices ensure that the products provide exceptional warmth while remaining lightweight and comfortable for the wearer.

The collection will be available in three colors: purple, beige, and black, catering to diverse style preferences. The pricing for the jacket is set at ¥140,800 JPY (approximately $940 USD), while the vest will retail for ¥96,800 JPY (around $640 USD).

October 18, 2023 marks the official launch date for the NEEDLES x Rocky Mountain Featherbed collection. Customers can purchase these items through NEPENTHES’s website and its affiliated stores, providing fans of both brands with a new opportunity to embrace this unique collaboration.

This partnership not only highlights the creative synergy between the two brands but also aims to appeal to those who appreciate high-quality, stylish outerwear that merges tradition with modern artistry.
