Kith unveils luxury collection in collaboration with Japanese brand Auralee
Kith has teamed up with Japanese fashion brand Auralee to introduce a collection that embodies timeless style, superior craftsmanship, and the finest materials. This collaboration showcases a harmonious blend of Kith’s elegant design language with Auralee’s dedication to premium fabrics, delivering a range of sophisticated apparel and accessories. Both brands share a deep-rooted passion for quality, which is evident in the thoughtfully curated pieces that highlight understated elegance.
Spearheaded by Kith’s Founder and Creative Director, Ronnie Fieg, and Auralee’s Founder, Ryota Iwai, the partnership draws inspiration from Auralee’s most iconic silhouettes. The collection is enriched by the custom hues of the Kith 101 Palette, adding a unique touch to each piece. The collaboration goes beyond aesthetics, incorporating luxurious fabrics such as Super 120 raw cashmere, finely woven Egyptian finx cotton, and ultra-soft South African super-kid mohair. Each garment, crafted in Japan, offers a perfect balance of comfort and sophistication.
Key pieces in this collection include standout outerwear like the Heavy Canvas Liner Coat, crafted from thick, textured Japanese canvas, with a blend of cashmere wool lining and functional details such as multiple pockets and an adjustable hood.
Another highlight is the Melton Chesterfield Coat, made from Auralee’s ultra-soft Super160’s wool in a refined green tone from the Kith 101 Palette. For a more formal look, the Light Wool Max Gabardine Jacket and matching slacks, crafted from Super140’s wool gabardine, present a minimalist take on quiet luxury suiting in a classic grey hue.
In addition to the refined outerwear and suiting options, the collection includes a selection of premium basics such as hoodies, crewnecks, sweatpants, and T-shirts, all made from ultra-soft cotton knit. Elevated shirting is also available, featuring Viyella wool fabric for a blend of warmth and style.
To complement the apparel, the accessories range offers versatile and functional options. This includes unbranded headwear, practical bags like the Double Pouch and Puffed Tote, and seasonal essentials such as the Milton Balaclava and custom scarves. The combination of superior materials, clean design, and purposeful functionality defines this collaboration as a true representation of quiet luxury.
This collection marks a significant moment for both Kith and Auralee, showcasing their shared commitment to creating pieces that are as luxurious as they are enduring. The use of exclusive fabrics, timeless silhouettes, and the perfect blend of style and functionality make this collaboration a must-have for those who appreciate refined fashion.
