The “AURORA TEX Down Jacket,” a collaboration between “Mobile Suit Gundam” and outdoor brand “NANGA,” combines high performance with stylish design. Two types, the WHITEBASE model and the FARMEL model, are available for preorder on the “STRICT-G” section of Bandai Namco Group’s official online store, Premium Bandai.
The anime series Mobile Suit Gundam began airing in 1979. With its realistic depictions of war, in which robots were used as “weapons” known as “mobile suits,” meticulous scientific research, and complex, deep human drama, it established the genre of “real robot anime,” which went beyond the simple good-versus-evil tropes that had been the trend in robot anime up until that point, and sparked a major boom.
Since then, the series has been produced in a variety of forms, including TV anime, theatrical and cinematic works, OVAs, streaming and event videos, and TV specials. It has long been highly popular both in Japan and overseas. In January 2024, “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM,” the latest film in the “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series,” was released.
Nanga is a down sleeping bag manufacturer that started in 1941 in the Omi cotton futon production area and has many fans among outdoor enthusiasts. They are particular about feathers and continue to make warmer feather products using the know-how they have cultivated over the years in selecting, washing, and managing feathers.
The “NANGA Mobile Suit Gundam AURORA TEX Down Jacket” is available as a hooded AURORA DOWN JACKET, with DX down filling and NANGA’s unique waterproof and breathable material AURORA TEX on the outer surface. AURORA TEX protects against heavy rain and wind while allowing moisture to escape from the inside to prevent stuffiness. It is water-resistant even in torrential rain like a typhoon, and allows sweat from intense movement to escape, making it comfortable to wear for outdoor activities in the winter and in everyday life.
The WHITEBASE model has the Federal Army mark on the left chest and a mark with a White Base motif on the left sleeve. The FARMEL model is a special custom model with the Zeon Army mark embroidered on the left chest and left sleeve. Removable hook-and-loop patches are used on the right chest, so you can enjoy customizing it. The front and pockets are opened and closed with waterproof zippers, and the inside of the pockets are made of brushed material so that they can be used as hand warmer pockets. Be sure to try out this item that is packed with functionality down to the smallest details.
The price is 68,200 yen each, including tax and shipping fees. Reservations will be accepted until 11:00 pm on October 27th at the “STRICT-G Online Store” on “Premium Bandai”, and shipments are scheduled for November 2024.
