Kith is once again celebrating the Olympics by creating an elevated lifestyle collection for Team USA. The 27-style collection offers reimagined versions of Kith staples created from the brand’s custom-milled fabrics and also serves as the debut of an original logo designed by Kith that is exclusive to this partnership.
The assortment includes a range of outerwear silhouettes such as the Midi Puffer Jacket and Quilted Track Jacket offered in white with a custom snow mountain graphic created specifically for this collection. The graphic is used throughout the line, on hoodies, cardigans, reversible bucket hats and other accessories. Other hoodies, crewnecks and Kith’s Williams I Sweatpant feature the exclusive logo along with a Kith classic logo.
Accessories range from headwear and socks to water bottles and snowboards. A range of caps, bucket hats, and beanies feature the co-branded artwork as does a 16 oz. canteen created in partnership with Corkcicle. In addition, a 158 cm snowboard, in partnership with Capita, showcases the snow mountains artwork on one side and a Kith classic logo on the opposite.
