Starter is offering up a rare chance to cop two iconic pieces from Eddie Murphy's film Coming to America. The sportswear company has teamed up with New Jersey-based boutique Packer to honor the classic comedy with the re-release of the New York Jets silk jacket and the Mets wool and leather varsity worn by Murphy and Arsenio Hall's characters Akeem and Semmi.
To help model the throwback outerwear, Starter tapped rappers Action Bronson and Meyhem Lauren. The New York natives are featured in a lookbook shot at some of the city's biggest tourist attractions.
Check out the images below. The Coming to America collection will be available in-store and at Packer's online shop on Jan. 23.
