In collaboration with Leica, we constructed this uniquely functional jacket from a weather-resistant, waxed cotton-nylon blend fabric and designed it with the specific needs of photographers in mind. We finished it with the thoughtful details we’re known for, creating a spacious outer layer that honors the spirit of the globetrotting artists who inspired it. Please note: runs large—size down if in between sizes.
This garment is designed to perform best in 60 to 80 degree temperature range.
To create the Reporter Jacket, we partnered with world-renowned Leica, the 175-year-old German brand known as the go-to camera for generations of photojournalists.
The fabric has been treated with a special waxed finish that adjusts to ambient temperatures, becoming softer and more breathable in warm weather and creating a windproof barrier in colder conditions. As it ages, it will naturally pick up marks and creases with wear, creating a garment that is uniquely yours.
