YEMESKEL Parka Jacket in Addis Black | Waterproof Ethiopian-Inspired Outerwear

A parka for anyone who refuses to let weather dictate their day. The YEMESKEL jacket in Addis Black brings Ethiopian heritage to modern street style—waterproof protection meets the sacred Meskel cross in a thigh-high silhouette that claims space and keeps you covered, rain or shine.

This is the jacket that moves through storms without asking permission. Relaxed fit, adjustable details, and the kind of length that says you're here to stay. The Meskel motif isn't just pattern—it's a symbol of finding truth and light, worn by those who've learned to protect what matters while staying true to themselves. The Addis Black colorway honors Ethiopia's capital city—Addis Ababa, meaning "new flower"—a reminder that even in darkness, new growth emerges.

What Makes It Yours:

  • 100% polyester construction—waterproof and built to weather any storm
  • Thigh-high length with relaxed fit for coverage that doesn't compromise movement
  • Meskel cross motif: Ethiopian sacred symbol celebrating the discovery of the True Cross, representing light, truth, and divine protection
  • Adjustable cuffs let you customize fit and seal out the elements
  • Inside pockets keep essentials secure and hands warm
  • Addis Black colorway: named for Ethiopia's capital, "new flower"—growth from the soil up

The Story Behind the Stitch

Named "YEMESKEL" in honor of the Meskel celebration—Ethiopia's festival of light and renewal—this parka embodies resilience through the seasons. The Addis Black colorway connects to Ethiopia's thriving capital, Addis Ababa, where "new flower" represents the constant renewal and growth that defines the city's spirit. From ancient roots, new life blooms.

Every YEMA piece carries heritage forward while making room for whoever's brave enough to reach for it. This isn't outerwear for the select few—it's for dreamers, doers, outsiders, and everyone in between who need armor that adapts to whatever the world brings.

* Pair with sneakers for street-ready style or boots when the forecast gets serious
* The relaxed fit means room for chunky sweaters underneath—dress for the weather, not the calendar
