Although thebest Black Friday dealsis all around us, I’m mainly excited about Columbia Sportswear’s most ambitious Star Wars collaboration yet – The Vader Collection.

This 16-piece release is a galaxy-spanning celebration of Darth Vader’s iconic style, blending the Sith Lord’s unmistakable aesthetic with Columbia’s cutting-edge performance tech.

From battling Hoth-like conditions to braving your local winter, this collection ensures you’ll be prepared to “impress the Emperor.”

Launching on 5 December, the collection features streetwear-inspired designs that evoke the dark side, with matte and shiny materials, Sith-approved silhouettes, and Aurebesh details hidden throughout.

Other standouts include theVader Parka(MSRP $350), built to dominate winter with Omni-Tech waterproofing, and theVader Boot(MSRP $200), Columbia’s first Star Wars-inspired footwear.

For those who want to accessorise their allegiance, theVader Crossbody Bag(MSRP $60) is a practical yet stylish nod to the dark side, complete with lightsaber zipper pulls.

The collection doesn’t skimp on Easter eggs. Fans will find hidden messages in Aurebesh and design nods to Mustafar, lightsabers, and Vader’s chest plate.

It’s proof that this collaboration is aimed at the hardcore fanbase, ensuring you’ll “rule the galaxy” in style.

Columbia’s Star Wars collaborations are known to sell out at light speed, so early access is key.

Members of the Columbia Greater Rewards program can shop starting at 8:30 AM PT, with public access beginning at 9:00 AM PT.

The collection will also be available at select Columbia stores and online.
