Form, Fabric & Function: Introducing the MA.STRUM Vapour Parka
MA.STRUM take it back to the very beginning for the latest season with the introduction of the Vapour Parka which features a ripstop nylon fabric.
You'll probably remember when MA.STRUM first came on the technical outerwear scene back in 2008. An original connection with the "Godfather of sportswear" himself, Massimo Osti and the Aladdin's cave of clobber officially known as the Osti archive. There was however something a bit different about MA.STRUM that wasn't just a wannabe Stone Island or C.P. Company type brand. It had its own identity, its own branding & its own unique military inspired style. It was all about the outerwear, with the homegrown British brand quickly becoming a popular label amongst those with a penchant for performance fabrics, parkas & hues you could literally only find on the unique garments themselves. 2026 sees MA.STRUM take it back to the very beginning with the introduction of the Vapour Parka, with a key focus on form, fabric & function.

Building on the success of its collaboration with the Massimo Osti Archive, MA.STRUM has continued to develop its own identity, incorporating cutting edge technology with laser cut fabrics, heat-sealed seams & ergonomic tailoring for one-of-a-kind pieces. Unique hues from garment dyeing and military design influences from snorkel parkas to UV shield visors incorporated into hoods, the outerwear from the British born brand continues to be in a league of its own. With a concept of form meets function, MA.STRUM continue to offer the very latest in technical garment innovation from season to season.

Featuring a ripstop nylon fabric, the Vapour Parka is easily one of the British brand's stand out pieces of the season. Alongside the DWR (durable water repellency) fabric other highlights include a snap off hood with an array of pockets to the front in MA.STRUM's typical 'military inspired' style. There's also an internal waist cinch system for an optimal fit with enamel coated press studs & a detachable fluorescent compass ID badge to the right shoulder.
