As Alpha Industries is synonymous with military-inspired garments, the American brand recalls Operation Desert Storm and references U.S. military parariggers for its Fall/Winter 2017 collection. Parachute riggers are similar to textile specialists who are primarily accountable for repairing fabrics, canvas, and equipment. Patching together uniforms in the midst of a mission by using whatever resources they had, Alpha Industries salutes these resourceful heroes in its Fall/Winter 2017 collection. Some standouts include the new elongated MA-1 Long and Quartermaster Field Coat, chocolate chip Camo Storm Cruiser jacket, and the K-2B Mod jumpsuit. Inspired by these customization skills and unique detailing, Alpha Industries blends heritage and innovation while paying homage to the Persian Gulf War.

Browse through the lookbook above and head over to Alpha Industries’ site to view the full lineup.
