Copenhagen-based Label mfpen Teams Up with Schott NYC for FW25 Collection
Iconic American outerwear brand Schott NYC has joined forces with Danish label mfpen for their latest Fall/Winter 2025 collection. The collaboration features a fresh take on Schott’s iconic CWU Bomber Jacket, adding a touch of Nordic aesthetic to the classic design.
The Rebel Jacket: Schott NYC’s Bomber Jacket
Schott’s Bomber Jacket has long been associated with tough guys and rebels, from biker gangs to punk rockers and youth subcultures. The brand’s leather Perfecto and Cafe Racer jackets have also become iconic silhouettes in their own right.
A Personal Connection for mfpen Founder Sigurd Bank
For mfpen founder Sigurd Bank, the collaboration with Schott holds a personal significance. Growing up in Denmark, Bank was always drawn to the rebellious connotations of Schott’s jackets, despite feeling intimidated by those who wore them. Now, he has the opportunity to reclaim the brand’s image and make it his own.
A Responsible Collaboration
In line with mfpen’s commitment to responsible production, the brand used leftover jackets from Schott for the collaboration. Instead of completely reworking the design, Bank made subtle updates to the hardware, adding a more deconstructed look to the jacket. The result is a piece that stays true to Schott’s original design while incorporating mfpen’s unique aesthetic.
Small Changes, Big Impact
The mfpen x Schott CWU Bomber Jacket is available in black and navy colorways, with small but impactful changes to the design. The traditional one-way zipper has been replaced with a two-way zipper for a more relaxed fit, and the collar features a hook-and-bar closure for a sophisticated touch. The addition of Riri zippers and metal rivets on the pockets add a touch of luxury to the jacket.
A Collaboration with Style and Substance
Not only does the mfpen x Schott CWU Bomber Jacket look great, but it also has a deeper meaning. The collaboration represents a merging of two distinct styles and backgrounds, creating a unique and meaningful piece for fashion lovers everywhere.
Experience the Collaboration in Action
To showcase the collaboration, mfpen has released a video featuring dancers from The Royal Danish Ballet. The video, directed by Isak Berglund Mattsson-Mårn, captures the rebellious and artistic spirit of the mfpen x Schott collection.
