Wow, this might be the ultimate safety vest for cycling or walking around when it’s dark. Skateboard company, Manik, and Hugeblocks have teamed up to bring us the Black Refector (Nightrider), a jacket covered almost entirely in 3M reflective material. I love everything about this except for the insane $350 price point. What gives?!

Winter is coming up real fast and the weather has already been pretty chilly during the start of Fall, so to get myself prepped for the cold months, I’ve been occasionally browsing for jackets. One jacket that caught my eye is this Fenchurch Aldrich, a jacket styled after jackets used in the Swiss Military (so they say).
The jacket only comes in “Blackberry Blue” and will run you about $125 USD (plus shipping, of course).

The MISHKA Spetsnaz jacket is now in its third release and with it comes some new improvements geared specifically toward cycling enthusiasts. Designed and tweaked in part by resident blogger and MISHKA-friend John Prolly, the Spetsnaz Mark III features fully taped seams, breathable and windproof nylon material, and enough protection to cover you from some of the hardest rains to fall on the city. The jacket also comes with a longer drop tail so that your butt won’t get wet from the water running up your tire as you bike.
The jacket is available now at the MISHKA online store in black and red for $210. However, if you ride your bike to the MISHKA store in Brooklyn, the crew there will give you 20% off the entire purchase. Not bad for a good ride into Brooklyn.
Check out more images of the Spetsnaz Mark III jacket here.

Limite posted some images from The Garbstore’s 2009 Fall/Winter collection where I first saw the Mountain Providence Parka shown above. The jacket is made from Japanese canvas in green, tan, and black and features an array of beautiful subtle design elements like real leather pull string tabs and hidden angled side pockets.
You can pick one up at The Garbstore in London or from various stockists around the world for about $420 USD.

This Fall/Winter, Timberland is selling this fabulous waterproof jacket shown above for $128. It features a waterproof nylon ripstop exterior with 2 mid-chest pockets with waterproof zippers. It also includes reflective details and a great red and black color scheme. I tried this baby on and it is fantastic. WANT WANT WANT.

I’m not exactly sure I can pull this look off, but regardless, I do think this Spring Street jacket is very nice looking. It’s $200.
