ALLIED Feather + Down In Partnership With MN Inter-Fashion, Introduces Down Apparel To European Market
ALLIED Feather + Down (AF+D), global leaders in high performance, ethically sourced down, and MN Inter-Fashion, manufacturers of high performance luxury outerwear, are proud to announce that the ALLIED Feather + Down outerwear collection will now be available to the European market.
Originally released only in Japan, this exclusive collection of jackets will be available to select European boutique retailers for the fall 2024 season. Limited to a few hundred pieces, this line will showcase the breadth of ALLIED’s down offering, from their industry-leading ExpeDRY down insulation to their exceedingly high performance 1000 fill power down. It will also include MN Inter-Fashion’s decades of experience delivering quality design and craftsmanship to some of the best known fashion houses in the world.
“ALLIED works with some of the biggest names in fashion and outdoor, and we’ve developed a very close relationship with the talented team at MN Inter-Fashion. This collaboration showcases what we both can do,” said Matthew Betcher, Creative and Marketing Director for ALLIED. “Made with the finest materials available and assembled by a world leader in luxury apparel, our line enjoyed a very successful launch in Japan so we decided to bring it to the fashion-forward European market as well.”
Designed, cut, and sewn by MN Inter-Fashion in Japan using materials from ALLIED and Pertex, these jackets represent a collision between cutting edge fashion aesthetics and materials normally reserved for highly technical outerwear. The result is a unique garment that presents a sophisticated urban look blended with performance that rivals the most technical outdoor apparel available.
This collection will be on full display during ISPO in Munich, November 28-30, in the ALLIED booth A2.102.
