"Columbia Sportswear just lauched its Endor collection, and I want it all. Inspired by the clothes worn by the rebel squad that took on the Death Star's shield generator in Return of the Jedi, it's the latest and largest Star Wars drop from Portland, Oregon-based company. It's also the best fit for the brand since its Empire Strikes Back's Echo Base Han Solo parkas, which I missed back in 2017"
"The highlight of the collection is General Han Solo's Trench, a $600 jacket that mimics the camouflage duster that Harrison Ford wore while leading the strike team on the forest moon. Unlike cheap Amazon costumes, this and the rest of the line is built with actual functional specs, using an Interchange system that pairs a waterproof shell with an inner vest lined with Columbia's Omni-Heat Infinity gold thermal reflectors."
Columbia Sportswear launched the Endor collection, a Star Wars–inspired outerwear line drawing on Return of the Jedi's forest combat costumes. The collection's centerpiece is General Han Solo's Trench, a $600 Interchange duster combining a waterproof shell with an inner vest lined with Omni-Heat Infinity thermal reflectors. The pieces include fan-service details like Aurebesh messages and a Rebel Alliance patch while emphasizing practical performance for everyday use. The collection was developed closely with Disney and Lucasfilm and is priced in line with similar Columbia outerwear styles, positioned as functional apparel rather than cosplay.
