We’ve seen Converse and Mackintosh already team up this season once before with a remake of the Jack Prucell Johnny Shoe. This piece takes things to Mackintosh’s home court with the Newfield Mac Coat. It features Waterproof Mackintosh Fabric Construction, dual branded inner label, and embossed button detail.
Limited quantities on this one.
The Mackintosh x Converse collaboration was announced not too long ago and we’re excited to see the product beginning to hit select shops. The Jack Purcell Johnny sneaker is did up in the traditional waterproof rubberized cloth from Mackintosh. The shoes come in navy, putty and dark olive with contrasting interiors and clean, matching laces and a contrasting set as well.
This is real and will go down as one of our favorite collabs in quite sometime. Don’t hesitate to pull the trigger.
Mackintosh is known for its iconic raincoat and it’s experienced a bit of a resurgence in the past few years, becoming a premiere luxury brand that’s still dishing out top-notch pieces. We’re currently in the midst of a rain downpour so why not show you guys a piece that’ll keep you dry next time around? The Dunkeld coat is made from 100% coated linen that’s shower resistant also happens to be a more fitted version of the famous Mackintosh Duncan.
Junya Watanabe teams up with Mackintosh once again with this hooded parka leading the way. It features a simplistic design but there are some distinct details that help to make it standout. The “eye” before its name signifies this piece was made in extremely limited quantities.
Mackintosh delivers their Hooded Farndon in a ‘Blackwatch’ tartan plaid which is made from a PU coated cotton gabradine fabric. The hood’s detachable and the quilted lining can be removed as well. The detailing is impeccable with additions such as the black cord collar and throat tab with hook & eye fastening at neck.
There is much to love about a Mackintosh coat and while the company’s longstanding reputation is never in question, it never hurts to state why their coats are so special. For one, they’re handmade in Scotland with 100% bonded cotton cloth. All of the seams are hand taped and the fabric is completely waterproof. Don’t expect any April showers to get through this layer of protection. This Duncan is a 3/4 length and comes in a navy blue finish as well.

It’s all in the details with this one. Woolrich John Rich & Bros. drops this Mac trench coat in a navy blue finish, giving us a water-resistant short trench that fits well and delivers all the protection we’ll need from Mother Nature. The coat features three front pockets (two with hidden magnetic closures at the sides and one large hunting pocket with taped zipper closure), working button cowl at the collar, and epaulets and adjustable wrist straps attached with hidden magnets to avoid tearing if snagged.

Japan label Edifice has unveiled their Weatherwear collection, a collaboration with Mackintosh and Lavenham that’s blessed the loyalists with a lineup of quilted jackets. The styles are made of nylon and even tweed (above), with the collection being limited to Japan only (no surpise here). Selectism tells us it has yet to hit the online market getting your hands on one of these quilted jackets will be no easy task. Best of luck.
