The outerwear piece is part of Balenciaga's Fall 2018 collection and debuted on the runways during Paris Fashion Week in March. The range, helmed by creative director Demna Gvasalia, included different variations of the layered parka, including iterations with leopard prints and color-block trench coats for women.

It didn't take long for the Internet to troll the jacket. People promptly made comparisons to Joey wearing all of Chandler's clothes in Friends—and the similarities are actually quite uncanny.

Some people also thew some non-Friends-related shade.

This isn't the first time Balenciaga's outerwear have caused a viral craze. Its Fall 2017 men's collection caught attention with jackets and other pieces emblazoned with a logo inspired by Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign. Last year, its parkas (only one layer this time) were nearly ubiquitous on the street style scene, spotted on everyone from the fashion set to stylish rappers like A$AP Rocky.

It looks like the Joey Tribbiani-esque coat is the latest addition to the list. But who will be brave enough to actually wear it (and, well, buy it) this winter?

Apparently, the men's collection also includes a layered parka with a hot pink feathered outer coat. We can't wait until this one hits retail.
