John Ibbitson — January 16, 2012 — Fashion
In its latest collection of outerwear, online specialty retailer Guylook offers up some truly striking style with this modern take on a classic coat with its Wire Big Hood Fishtail Parka. This modern version of the jacket, inspired by parkas worn in the US military that were created to help keep soldiers warm and dry when out for days on the battlefield, has been re-envisioned with oversized tailoring for a more hip, youthful and edgier style.
It’s also crafted with what the shop calls a “super-sized wired hood” that is sure to give you a dynamic, bold look while protecting your head from the elements. Other fashion-forward details of this jacket include a fishtail back and a dense quilted lining. Available in green and black, the Wire Big Hood Fishtail Parka from Guylook will give its wearer a casually cool street style that will enhance any look.
