ALPHA x PROTOTYPES CWU-45 Outline Bomber Jacket

The ALPHA x PROTOTYPES CWU-45 Outline Bomber Jacket delivers precision construction and raw interventions within an iconic silhouette, fusing the DNA of Alpha Industries with the forward-thinking approach of Paris-based label Prototypes. Crafted from 100% nylon and built with durable flight nylon, it offers a hard-wearing shell engineered for everyday wear. The core fit creates a voluminous shape with extra room in the body and sleeves, while maintaining a clean, controlled profile. Inside, onion quilting adds structure and ensures even heat distribution. Two exterior pockets and an interior Velcro pocket provide secure storage and fast access. The wind flap with Alpha logo embroidery acts as a clear functional statement, while the PROTOTYPES label is stitched directly onto the Alpha Velcro patch to deliberately shift the visual identity. The utility pocket is cut out and the RBF tag intentionally minimized, creating a raw, exposed look that breaks with expectations. The setup is completed by PROTOTYPES and Alpha flag labels that make the collaboration instantly recognizable. Ribbed cuffs and hem lock in the fit and hold the shape over time. Every element follows a defined system—nothing is random, everything is part of a controlled rework. This jacket embodies functional materials, deliberate interventions, and a design language that reconstructs familiar codes. Straightforward, resilient, and mission-ready, it moves with you through the city and delivers exactly what you need—no compromises. Instead of producing new garments from scratch, Prototypes focuses on upcycling and reuse. The Second Life line repurposes surplus fabrics and existing garments, promoting a more conscious approach to how fashion is made and worn. True to its name, Prototypes creates one-of-a-kind pieces that amplify individual expression and offer a real alternative to mass-produced, standardized lookalikes. No two pieces are ever the same—and that’s exactly the point.
