For the eighth winter season, Columbia Sportswear and Lucasfilm Ltd. have joined forces to create a winter collection that will set Star Wars fans up to brave the coldest of terrains.

This year’s limited-edition “Star Wars” Skywalker Pilot Collection is inspired by Luke Skywalker’s legendary flight suit and includes nine pieces that blend fan-favorite details from on-screen costumes with the functionality of Columbia outerwear.

“This collaboration balances ‘Star Wars’ design with the performance and durability Columbia is known for,” said Matt Merriman, VP Brand Development and Partnerships at Columbia Sportswear. “These are not costume replicas. Rather, our product team took inspiration from Luke Skywalker’s iconic flight suit and created a fully equipped ski collection built to withstand the elements. It is that mash-up that we find interesting. The styles are as functional as they are beautiful.”

Drawing inspiration from the hero known for taking on Wampas and AT-ATs in the freezing cold, this line features lifestyle and performance gear fit for both the Rebel base and the ski slopes.

The Skywalker Pilot Collection launched on columbia.com/StarWars at 12:01am ET on Dec. 1, 2023, and some of the gear has already sold out online. However, it will also hit select Columbia-branded U.S. retail locations and will be available internationally in several countries in Asia, Europe, and Central and South America.

Here’s a closer look at each of the nine pieces. May the fashion Force be with you.
