A Unique Opportunity....


This season Jeff has been working on a very special Parka Coat for the spring/summer 11 collection - a design Griffin is know for and Jeff's favourite military piece (he even named his son after it). This is a fantastic design that we have decided to offer exclusively to our Griffin Online Customers on a made to order basis months before the spring/summer 11 collection even goes on sale. This coat will not be going into any stores and is an exclusive opportunity for our most loyal customers to take advantage of.

Firstly, let me tell you a little bit about the coat, it is made from a paper like fabric developed by Italian mill Limonta - the industry's best mill for technical fabrics and in particularly nylons. It is a full length oversized parka coat finishing just bellow the knee and taken from an original U.S. Military Parka. The Pocket Parka features the traditional A-line silhouette and fishtail hem with more swing added to the back of the coat and fitted with a drawstring at the waist to adjust the fit. The sleeves have been heavily considered and ergonomically designed, featuring tucks at the elbow to add shape and allow for plenty of movement. It is a fully reversible design, giving you two jackets in one, white on one side and black on the other with two different pocket features and two different looks to the coat depending on which way it is worn. The contrasting buttons and large bellow pockets take inspiration from the original military parka, the coat is also fitted with a high neck, sculpted hood . Manufactured in Italy - this is an extremely Limited Edition piece being offered purely on a made to order basis.

This is the first time we have offered our customers to order ahead of the season, our factory upon receiving your order will take around 8 weeks to manufacture the coat, unfortunately due to manufacturing schedule we can only offer this exclusive opportunity for the next 7 days so our factory can begin cutting and have your order with you by christmas. As we are offering this coat directly to our customers we are able to offer a massive cut in the traditional retail price of this jacket at just £465 (if traditionally marked up to it's full potential this jacket would retail at £715). We would require a deposit of £50 to secure your order in advance with the remaining amount paid once the coat arrives with us at the studio and before dispatch.
