Direct clothing label The Arrivals works in collaboration with Highsnobiety on the creation of the Aer puffer coat designed to withstand the winter conditions. The jacket is made with 550 fill of European goose down and it is fused with a nylon shell for water-resistant elements. The puffer coat is complete in a light gray color with some striking contrasting hits of cobalt blue. The blue completes the branding patch inside the jacket and the shoulder straps that are converted in the outerwear for hanging over the body when it is not being worn.
Some embossed details complete the cuff reading "Highsnobiety" and on the powder skirt reading "The Arrivals" as a nod to both labels. Additional details include the detachable hood and dual-zipper enclosure. The Aer puffer jacket is set to drop on November 13th online at The Arrivals.
