The third collaboration between John Elliott and Japanese technical apparel leader Descente Allterrain launches globally this Sunday, November 12 at 8AM PST through johnelliott.com.
Blending high-end fashion with cutting-edge fabric technology, the partnership reflects a shared philosophy that the best designs emerge from a harmony of specialized expertise.
The capsule features three products across three colorways: The Mizusawa Down Jacket, a Shell Jacket, and Shell Pant—All showcasing the blend of John Elliott’s modern aesthetic with advanced materials like GORE-TEX PACLITE®, and POLARTEC ALPHA DIRECT®. Each piece is waterproof—A thermal adhesive non-quilt process combined with seam taping prevents moisture entry.
Our goal is to blend the high-performance DNA of Descente with the clean lines and modern lens of the John Elliott brand. We’re excited to deliver these innovative pieces to our customers. Discover the silhouettes below.
