The House of Moncler, born in the heights of Monestier-de-Clermont, continues to honor its alpine heritage with the launch of its RE/ICONS Karakorum collection. Celebrating 70 years of outerwear innovation, Moncler reaffirms its original vocation of providing optimal warmth and protection, a heritage that has shaped the modern world of outdoor fashion.
The RE/ICONS Karakorum Collection: A Tribute to Origins and Innovation
The RE/ICONS collection is an ode to Moncler’s rich history and iconic pieces, reintroducing designs that have marked the brand’s history into the contemporary era. Each year, an iconic piece from the archives is reinterpreted, merging Moncler’s past and present and symbolizing the continuity between tradition and innovation.
In 2022, the Moncler Maya down jacket was revisited for the company’s 70th anniversary. This year, the Karakorum jacket, created in 1954 and worn by explorers Achille Compagnoni and Lino Lacedelli on their first ascent of K2, makes a triumphant return. This model, which has become synonymous with extreme protection and technical excellence, embodies the spirit of adventure and self-transcendence so dear to Moncler.
The New Karakorum Jacket: Three Versions Evoking Past, Present and Future
The new Karakorum jacket is available in three models reflecting Moncler’s rich heritage: a version reminiscent of the original 1954 model, another embodying the House’s modernity, and a final one projecting the brand’s future vision. Available from September 14 in selected Moncler boutiques and on moncler.com, these jackets are a true symbol of Moncler’s constant evolution in the field of luxury outerwear.
An Iconic Campaign for RE/ICONS
The RE/ICONS Karakorum campaign is magnified by the talent of photographer Jean-Baptiste Mondino, and complemented by the still life photography of Dan Tobin Smith. These captivating visuals highlight the beauty and ingenuity of Karakorum jackets, underscoring Moncler’s commitment to excellence and innovation.
Moncler RE/ICONS Karakorum: More than a Jacket, a Symbol
Moncler’s RE/ICONS Karakorum collection is not just a clothing line. It’s a celebration of heritage, a bridge between past and future, and tangible proof of Moncler’s commitment to always pushing the boundaries of innovation while remaining true to its alpine DNA. These pieces embody the spirit of the mountains and invite everyone to pursue their most ambitious dreams.
