Wings+Horns MK-2 Field Jacket

This jacket is great, definitely not a new design as it's very similarly modeled after the Canadian military jacket of decades past. It's one of my favorite military inspired jackets and Wings+Horns did a great job updating and upgrading the look while using the original elemtents and perfect choice of colors. The spring coat is made from 100% Japanese cotton with an oxford shirt lining and slim fit in Wings+Horns fashion. The piece is apart of the first release of the season by the Canadian brand and it only makes sense it dropped at their biggest supporters shop, Roden Gray. The collection is moving in a direction I am pretty happy to see personally. I've been growing along with it and feel like every season there are a number of items I would love to have. I would expect to see a few more stand out pieces dropping in the near future.

Love the jacket, especially the olive I assume? Is this apart of the S/S09 collection?

S/S 09 is really good. I'll have to pick up a few pieces.

I went and checked out the first Wings+Horns drop today, the jackets were nice. Felt heavy enough for most of the year, they fit quite slim in the shoulders, but both olive and black looked great. I ended up walking out with a pair of the khaki chinos. Nice casual/slim fit and good detailing.

I love the diagonal pocket. If anyone is interested in a more budget friendly military-ish field jacket, check out this recent post: http://www.eyefivestyle.com/2009/01/school-supplies-thrift-military.html
