Taking its name from the slim hardwood spear used by African warriors, New Zealand based cult clothing brand Swazi Apparel has created the Assegai – a functional, yet extremely classy wear anywhere jacket.
Lightweight, breathable and water repellant, this outer layer garment is windproof thanks to Swazi’s proprietary AEGIS® windshield fabric technology. It also features a storm flap under the main zip, snug cuffs and a high cut zip up collar, adding to the all-round weather protection provided.
For practicality, the New Zealand made jacket features two deep and secure side pockets and a handy chest pocket for stashing all your essentials. It is emblazoned with the Swazi logo on the chest, zip and lower arm, as a symbol of durability, comfort and value.
Davey Hughes, founder and creative director of Swazi, commented: “As someone who has travelled the length and breadth of Africa and hunted there numerous times, I wanted to pay homage to the continent’s rich hunting history and hence the Assegai was born.”
