Parka & Riders Jacket “My Own Private Idaho”





The 1990s was a time when street fashion, grunge style, and French casual flourished. Naturally, movies were also influenced by this, with films such as `` Singles '' (1992), `` Reality Bites '' (1994), `` Empire Records '' (1995), and `` Trainspotting '' (1996), which are a bit dingy but free-spirited. Style and color flooded the screen. A representative example of this is ` `My Own Private Idaho '' (1991), which is said to be the masterpiece of Gus Van Sant's ``Portland Trilogy.''


A road movie about Mike and Scott, two young men living as male prostitutes in Portland, who go on a journey to find the mother who abandoned Mike as a child. The themes presented in the film, such as prostitution, homosexuality, drugs, incest, and narcolepsy, are all shocking, but the street fashion worn by the two was refreshing and is said to have influenced many designers and stylists. Among Gus Van Sant's works, this is by far the best in terms of the number of image sources.


River Phoenix's character, Mike, wears a boa-lined lunch coat pulled off the shoulder, and an orange barn jacket with tan lining in a scene where he rides a motorcycle with Scott. All of the costumes are so familiar that it's hard to believe they're from a movie, and it's said that even today in the western United States and North Carolina, young kids wearing similar outfits still hang out on the streets.


In addition, Scott, played by Keanu Reeves, wears a hoodie underneath a double-breasted biker jacket, another typical example of a pioneering outfit that can be seen all over the world. Although the silhouette has changed to softer leather jackets and high-necked hoodies, it is still a beloved combination of town wear.





Even though it's leather, it stretches. A new type of leather that has a beautiful silhouette but is extremely comfortable to wear.
