Partner Product Release

A traditional bomber jacket with hidden, state-of-the-art technology

8JS has launched the JOHN02, the ultimate bomber jacket. It oozes style and offers top notch wind and weather protection too. Through the use of Polartec® Power Shield® Pro the JOHN02 really is the go-to jacket for urban streetwear and, of course, driving.

The 8JS brand was created by Sacha Prost, the son of four-time Formula One World Champion Alain Prost, with his brother Nicolas and sister-in-law Delphine. The brand manufactures in Italy and Portugal and is committed to offering well-made products that offer comfort, ease of movement and durability. To achieve this they collaborate with quality partners like Polartec.

The JOHN02 jacket uses Polartec® Power Shield® Pro a three-layer fabric built to protect from the elements. It’s a softshell technology and as a result provides exceptional comfort without the stiff hand and loud noise of a hard shell. The JOHN02 jacket has been engineered for driving and casual streetwear. Thanks to Power Shield Pro it can cope with strong winds, rain, snow and abrasive surfaces, keeping the wearer stylishly protected. Aesthetically the JOHN02 looks like a traditional bomber jacket but really packs a punch on the performance side. It is great worn with jeans and a t-shirt on the weekends or with chinos and a shirt for a more formal look.
