Aspesi has been known for its stylish essentials and pioneering technical fabrics since its inception in 1969. To celebrate its 50th anniversary, the Italian fashion brand is releasing updated versions of some of its most iconic pieces, reimagined for 2019.

The latest release is the Replica 50, a reworked version of Aspesi’s beloved field jacket, updated with daring neon tiger print camouflage in three colours: pink, gold and green. The Replica 50 field jacket has been released as a limited edition for men and women and combines classic military style with contemporary patterns and bold colours.

To mark the release, Aspesi has worked with three artists, Timo Kuilder, Merijn Hos and Stills & Strokes to reinterpret the jacket in three compelling moving-image artworks that capture the spirit of Replica 50 and Aspesi’s innovative approach and innate creativity. Visit the Aspesi website to see the artworks in action.

The Replica 50 jacket is €675 (approx £475) for men and €560 (approx £476) for women at aspesi.com and mrporter.com
