Kith × ssstein: A Cross-Cultural Winter Collaboration Between New York and Tokyo

On October 27, New York–based label Kith, known for blurring the lines between streetwear and luxury, has joined forces with the Japanese brand ssstein to launch a refined new collection, Kith 101 for ssstein. The partnership merges both brands’ shared passion for material innovation and minimalist design philosophy, resulting in a lineup of outerwear that is both modern and timeless.

Refined Neutrality Through Fabric and Color

The collection harmonizes ssstein’s renowned material-sourcing expertise with Kith’s contemporary design sensibility. Technical fabrics are paired with wool, cashmere, and knit materials to create pieces that balance warmth with sophistication.

The color palette, based on earthy tones such as walnut, everglades, and kindling, is accented with bright white and black beauty, reflecting the serene energy of both New York and Tokyo.

Timeless Design and Subtle Craftsmanship

The lineup includes double-breasted coats, reversible parkas, linen button-down shirts, alpaca crewneck sweaters, and oversized tees, along with cashmere-blend pants, sheep-leather trousers, and wool suiting separates—each crafted for versatile layering. Every piece features a discreet tonal leather patch with collaborative branding, expressing the understated aesthetic shared by the two labels.
