KITH and mastermind work in collaboration on a special collection that features both apparel and footwear options -- the footwear pieces are crafted alongside Vans as well. The New York-based retail label launches 28 different apparel pieces alongside three footwear models. The footwear selection highlight the signature 'Sk8-Hi Zip LX' the 'OG Classic Slip-On,' and the 'Old Skool LX.' The apparel is comprised of some classic silhouettes by KITH accompanied by some fresh new designs as well.
There are rugby shirts, cargo crewneck sweaters, knit sweaters with distressed details, and more. Notably, some of the apparel selection is complete with Swarovski crystals lining up the logo and a golden hardware 'WORLD' tassel to add a luxurious touch to the collaborative capsule. A standout item is the bomber jacket crafted from leather materials and accented with co-branding details throughout the back.
