Kim Jones has launched his first partnership with Hennessy X.O cognac for a limited-edition three-piece collection. A Masterpiece decanter, a limited-edition bottle of Hennessy X.O that is "ready to wear," and a pair of ‘HNY Low’ sneakers by Kim Jones are all part of the release. Each pair of the custom sneakers come with a cotton drawstring dustbag and an oak box.
Additionally, the decanter has been painted in a gradient of colors, emulating the hues of the several eaux-de-vie’s that the Master Blender combined to create Hennessy X.O.
“I wanted it to be elevated and chic, to reflect both the long heritage of cognac and my own design values,” explained Jones in a statement. “I wanted it to feel like you’re almost looking into the bottle. It’s a glass of cognac in sneaker form.”
