WTB: Helmut Lang Astro Parka

  This week brings us one of the BEST parkas ever made. The AW/ 99 Helmut Lang Astro Parka is a grail among many fashion lovers, including myself. Have you guys ever seen Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back? Do you remember the scene where Han Solo killed that Taun-Taun so Luke could sleep in it to stay warm? If Han would have had this jacket on him, Luke would have been hella cozy and stylish af while he slept through that blizzard. This jacket is called the Astro parka for a reason. You literally look like you should be rocking this on Hoth, while you shoot down invading Storm Troopers. If there's two things I love, it's Star Wars and fashion. This jacket looks like it's the best of both worlds. And it gets better... You can wear the jacket as a fucking backpack! Too hot to wear this jacket, but you still wanna destroy the fuccbois on the gram? Just casually drape this over your shoulders and watch the hypebeasts try and figure out what the fuck you're wearing. This parka alone has influenced many designers, such as Jun Takahashi and Kanye West. So if you guys want an OG parka that is God level, look no further, because this joint is a guaranteed neck breaker. If you want to upgrade your outerwear game by 10000%, consider copping this bad boy. Be sure to hit up Grailed or Ebay to thirst for this rare ass piece of fashion history.
