Parachute Cargo Bomber | L

A landmark example of Issey Miyake’s utilitarian experimentation during the 1990s, this Autumn/Winter 1996 Parachute Cargo Bomber merges military functionality with sculptural garment engineering. Famously worn by Robin Williams to the 1997 premiere of the film Flubber, the silhouette reinterprets the classic MA-1 through oversized cargo compartments, technical detailing, and parachute-inspired construction elements that emphasize volume, adaptability, and movement. Produced during one of Miyake’s most innovative periods, the jacket reflects the designer’s fascination with garments as evolving architectural forms rather than static clothing objects. Increasingly scarce on the archival market, the bomber remains a coveted piece among collectors drawn to the intersection of technical outerwear and conceptual Japanese design.
