a toasty coat inspired by our
49th state

Sarah Palin has turned us off most things Alaskan, but this winter we'll make an exception for Parajumper's P.J. Skimaster parka. Inspired by the 210th Rescue Squad, an elite team of Anchorage-based Air Force rescuers who brave frigid conditions to save downed pilots and lost climbers, the jacket is built to withstand the worst elements. But with its removable fur trim, sleek cropped shape, and sharp details, it's chic enough to give puffer-standby Moncler a run for its down-loving client base. Wear it for your next ride up the lifts or your next run to the corner bodega—in this kind of weather that's adventure enough.
