MONCLER TEAMS UP WITH KITH FOR SPECIAL COLLECTION

French luxury brand Moncler has teamed up with New York-based lifestyle brand and retailer Kith on a special collection for the fall/winter 2017-2018 season.

The collection includes graphic outerwear, made from iconic lacquered nylon; cotton jersey T-shirts and sweatshirts; accessories like gloves, backpacks and balaclavas; not forgetting trousers with thick-weave biker padding jackets and waistcoats, of great formal and clean geometric lines made in nylon laqué, characterized by a weave of biker-style padding and by a sparkling linearity of zips.

The color palette focuses on Moncler’s signature French flag colors: blue, white and red, used in a linear and geometric form for maximum style and renewed appeal, reinterpreted in a more filtered tonal version. The ready-to-wear collection is a balanced match of names and symbols of both Moncler and Kith brands. The footwear section of the collection is split into a large boots segment, footwear in nubuck or calf leather, made particularly warm by a shearling interior.

The collection launch will take place on December 2 both in Moncler and Kith stores worldwide as well as online on moncler.com. The collection will also be exclusively available starting from December 2 at the Colette concept store on Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris, with dedicated windows, and online at colette.fr.

On December 8, as a second drop of the collection, Moncler and Kith will present an exclusive sheepskin-lined suede trainers, designed in collaboration with Asics – named Kith x Moncler x Asics – which blends different manufacturing techniques in a unique piece available in navy, red and off-white colors, ranging in calf and suede leather.
