There’s simply one thing about this shade. From Eddie Bauer to Nigel Cabourn, from mountaineering to streetwear, let’s discover the Orange Kara Koram Parka.
K2 will not be solely the second tallest mountain on this planet; it’s thought-about some of the harmful and troublesome climbs. In 1953, no person had reached the summit, however Charles Houston had a plan: he needed his crew to achieve the summit with no oxygen provide. Simply good coaching and… Eddie Bauer Parkas.
Eddie engineered a brand new type only for the journey, and named it for the Karakoram mountain vary through which K2 resides. He pioneered the down jacket—heat, mild, and proof against wind and snow—with a design that cinched near the physique and included a helpful array of pockets. And whereas it got here in lots of colours (the originals have been apparently extra crimson), there’s nothing fairly so useful as high-visibility “security” orange.
A long time later, there’s nonetheless simply one thing about that shade. Let’s discover the Orange Kara Koram Parka.
(there shall be a disproportionately massive variety of Korean males on this album. they appear to have good style.)

Sadly, I received this text out fairly late within the season, so inventory is proscribed throughout… I might search for a visual cinch, rectangular quilting, and at these two key pockets (or an analogous structure).

Musina
Labour Union in a cool washed out orange (wait, no, these are out of inventory)
FrizmWORKS (solely in inventory on Mr. Porter, so far as I can inform) (they usually have a vest, too)
eBay (not low-cost). That is difficult, as a result of when you use the time period “kara koram,” you get like one orange possibility and some extra in crimson, however when you simply use the time period “parka” and filter by model, you get a mixture of completely different types. This is a superb one. This is one other. This is one other, for under $2500.
