Military-Inspired Outerwear

The Spiewak Fall/Winter 2015 Line Has Men's Outerwear Featuring Teflon

— November 4, 2015 — Fashion
The Spiewak Fall/Winter 2015 Collection uses the brand's military past to inspire the design of men's outerwear. The high-quality jackets use strong materials that don't just brave the cold but also protect from other things like stains and tears. Such materials are featured in the N3-B Parka, for instance, that uses Teflon-coated stain-resistant fabric, or the MA-1 Flight Jacket that is made with waterproof and Thermore technology fabric.

Styles range from short bombers to long parkas -- varying in thickness to appropriately fit all weather. They all have a utilitarian look to them, sleek and stylish without being overdone or flashy. Some even have detachable and reversible designs like the Empire System Parka. Keeping men warm through the winter, this men's outerwear comes with fleece linings or recycled duck down feathers.
Trend Themes
1. Military-inspired Fashion - Fashion companies can create a military-inspired line of clothing and accessories for a timeless, utilitarian look.
2. Stain-resistant Materials - Manufacturers can innovate with Teflon or other stain-resistant technologies to create durable yet fashionable outerwear for all occasions.
3. Detachable/reversible Designs - Designers can explore customizable and versatile detachable and reversible features in their outerwear to appeal to customers seeking both function and style.
Industry Implications

2. Textile Manufacturing - Manufacturers can work with stain-resistant and weather-proof materials like Teflon and Thermore technology to create outerwear with added durability and function.
3. Retail and E-commerce - Retailers and e-commerce platforms can focus on detachable and reversible outerwear designs to appeal to customers seeking versatile and customizable clothing options.
