Norway Crew Jacket (press version) | |
There are three styles of jackets/parkas used in Finse, Norway by the crew for The Empire Strikes Back: crew version, executive version, and press version. These were based on ski jackets made by the company, Ski Peer, but were custom ordered from Fox Norway for the crew.
This is the press version of the jacket. The most significant difference is the color, a dark navy blue, that stands out among the more commonly worn royal blue jackets used by the location crew. Perhaps it was given this color to identify press from a mile away! The collar is multicolored along with the sleeves. This jacket only has the Empire Strikes Back Vader in Flames patch and lacks the other patches sewn on the other versions of the jacket. |
