Burton’s Senior Vice President of Creative Greg Dacyshyn is experiencing the “pleasure” of announcing the company’s latest collab with designer Paul Smith. This time things are getting a little punk “which is right up Paul Smith’s alley,” according to a press release on Burton.com.
The focal point of the 2009 Fall/Winter collection is a bondage-inspired snowboarding jacket that combines fashion and function with welded pockets, taped seams, a pass pocket, gauntlet cuffs and an adjustable hood. The jacket is available in two colorways; black shiny rubber and jacquard leopard print.
A “black shiny rubber” bondage jacket? According to the release, Burton team rider Chris Sorman definitely wants “to get my hands on these pieces.” But the real shame is that David Carradine won’t be around to enjoy this one.
