Get acquainted with Kin’s effortless and modern new collection, built with durability and performance in mind

Kin’s clean and effotlessly cool aesthetic has been a favourite with discerning men ever since it first launched in 2013. Our in-house brand continues to build on its foundation of versatility and enduring style, with a new collection focusing on well-made and wearable staples. Here’s what you need to know about the new season. 

Kin new collection menswear

Everyday tailoring takes centre stage

Kin’s new twist on tailoring is modern, easy to throw on and actually comfortable – something that the majority of suits definitely can’t claim. A new-season mix of silk and wool makes for a softer material and less structured silhouette, perfect for suits worn more casually with T-shirts and trainers.

Kin linen suit

Linen gets a fuss-free makeover

In theory, linen is to summer what wool is to winter: a staple fabric that exists to keep its wearer at perfect body temperature. But in practice, it can be impractical and far too easy to crease. This conundrum is solved through Kin’s unique blend of linen and sorona – a fibre used in performance-wear but with the same breathable, lightweight properties as linen – just with less chance of creasing. Pick up a new season suit and see for yourself.

Kin prints new season

Print is big news now

Spring is all about print: from the subtle to the standout, it’s here to stay. Kin’s new prints are all designed in-house and made to be worn with their matching counterparts or as stand alone pieces paired with muted staples. Invest in a graphic palm print shirt for sunnier weather.

Kin denim jacket

Denim jackets join the line up

As an English brand, Kin designs with English sensibilities, so the weather is a natural factor to consider. For spring, the denim jacket takes centre stage. Filling that sweet spot between heavy winter outerwear and no jacket at all, it works all season long from work to weekend and paired with matching jeans (if you’re feeling brave) or classic chinos and a lightweight sweatshirt.
