Opening Ceremony and Columbia joined forces to offer consumers a collaboration that brought together the best aspects from both brands, presenting consumers with a vibrant yet practical line of outerwear that's complete with designer streetwear touches.
Standouts from the unique collaboration include a gorgeous hiking boot that's topped with soft pink accents, making for a more elegant footwear option that still presents the wearer with the same protective necessities. Meanwhile, one of the most practical pieces is the packable anorak, which can be thrown into a backpack to offer a space-saving solution.
The eight-piece line is available online, and in select Columbia stores -- one in Portland, and one in Chicago.
