WILD THINGS MAKALU JACKET

A full-fledged version of the archived 'MAKALU JACKET' modified and processed with seam sealing.
Gussets are added under the sleeves, and the three-dimensional sleeve pattern recreates the volume and size of the archive.
The down uses recycled Kawata Feather down (about 700FP).
On his chest, he wore an arranged version of the old WILD CAT logo name.
The rounded silhouette creates a retro outdoor vibe.
The outer fabric uses WILD THINGS' original three-layer fabric REPEREX MOISTURE PRO, specialized for breathability, and the filling uses 700FP Kawada recycled down.
By wrapping the down into a tube, a layer of air forms between the tubes, creating a structure that feels even warmer.
Additionally, compared to down products with the same amount, it achieves a more three-dimensional and substantial silhouette.
The chest features a reissue of the old WILD CAT logo name.
Inside, there are names spelled out in the WILD THINGS CODE quoted from archival materials.

【REPELEX】
REPELEX is an original 3-layer product from WILD THINGS.
With six effects—water repellency, water resistance, breathability, stretch, durability, and lightweight—it repels all kinds of stress (discomfort).
The logo is a coined word combining REPEL (to bounce back) and fabric (TEXTILE), with six functions inspired by a hexagon.
While 24FW used WATER PRO, which is especially water-resistant, this time it's the MOSTURE PRO, which specializes in breathability.
Water resistance: over 20,000mm, breathability: 48,000g/m2/24h.

【KAWADA DOWN】
Feather products collected within Japan are dismantled, washed, and recycled feathers are used.
During recycling, dust removal, washing, drying, and sorting are performed, making the wool cleaner than regular new wool. Furthermore, Kawata Feather's advanced feather washing and recovery technology also restores functions such as insulation and moisture absorption.
Kawada Feather meets Kawada Feather's strict recycled feather inspection standards (cleanliness 3000mm), delivering high-quality down equivalent to 700FP.
By making the down tubular tube-shaped, it produces a more three-dimensional and substantial volume compared to the same amount of down products.
Also, by making it into a tube, an air layer is created, making it feel warmer than regular down products.

WILD THINGS is an outdoor brand founded in 1981 in North Conway, Massachusetts, by John Beauchard and Marie Meunier, America's leading mountaineers.
In 1984, Marie became the first woman to summit Aconcagua, the highest peak in the Andes, and drawing on her many grueling climbing experiences, she created high-quality products under the concept of 'having to be light yet tough.'
They actively adopt new materials, and their excellent functionality has earned them the support of many professional mountaineers.
Functional wear focused on cold protection and durable luggage are continuously adopted by the U.S. Army and Navy.
