Tim Burgess launches replica ‘How High’ jacket to mark single’s 25th anniversary
01.06.2022 - 12:21 / nme.com
Tim Burgess has launched a jacket inspired by the one he wore in the video for The Charlatans’ single ‘How High’ to mark the song’s 25th anniversary.The track was released in 1997 and appeared on the band’s fifth album ‘Tellin’ Stories’. In the music video, the frontman donned a yellow and black jacket.“The question I get asked the most about The Charlatans isn’t ‘How does it feel to headline a festival?’ or ‘What was it like writing a banger like ‘The Only One I Know’?’,” Burgess told NME.
“Nope. It’s ‘Where’s the jacket from in the ‘How High’ video?’“And the answer? It was on a rail of clothes that the stylist brought.
I handed it back never even knowing what make it was. Once we’d finished filming the video we were asked if we wanted any of the clothes that had been given to us, I said I’d like the jacket but they said it hadn’t been launched yet but they would definitely send me one.
It never arrived, so 25 years later I thought we’d make our own.” Inspired by the jacket’s popularity, Burgess has teamed up with the clothing brand Hikerdelic to make a replica version in honour of the 25th birthday of ‘How High’, which lands on June 9. The jacket will cost £125 (including postage in the UK) and will be on sale from 11am BST on June 9 until 11pm June 12 via the Hikerdelic website.Each jacket will come with a special postcard, designed by @The_Ren1981 – see an example below.
