'Nobis,' the luxury outerwear clothesmaker, has teamed up with 'Duncan Keith,' a professional Canadian ice hockey player, to launch a limited-edition parka. This parka was designed by Keith himself to be comfortable in a Canadian winter while fitting Keith's signature style. The resulting 'Duncan Keith x Nobis Heritage Men's Parka' is available in only one style. The color is 'Heritage Black' with light-brown faux-fur around the hood and a bright red inner layer.
This jacket features waterproofing and insulating technologies while also being breathable and comfortable. The 'Down Density Indicator (DDI)' value, which is a measurement of elemental protection that Nobis uses on a scale from one to five, is a three for this jacket. A three on the DDI scale means this parka is built for temperatures of up to -20°C.
