Background

In late April, Palantir – the software company best known in recent years for its defense‑industry contracts and work with Immigration and Customs Enforcement – announced that it would be adding new products to its merchandise store.

The New Merch Offering

The latest item is a cotton chore coat, available in bright‑blue and black options.

Design Inspiration

The jacket resembles a standard offering that, thanks to photographer Bill Cunningham, has trickled down into mainstream menswear for years. It is a pastiche of 19th‑century French workwear originally worn by people doing physical labor; the only noticeable difference is its modern, fashion‑forward finish.

Pricing and Availability

• Price: $239
• Colors: Bright blue, black
