Titled ‘Kith X Wilson’ the capsule comprises of 160 styles of men’s, women’s, and kids on-court apparel, sporting equipment and accessories inspired by the sport of tennis.
The 77-piece men’s collection, 27-piece women’s collection, and 19-piece kid’s collection features on-court and off-court styles in color palettes of optic white and dusty earth tones.
Rounding out the capsule are 37 accessories for men, women and kids such as as caps, visors and bucket hats, sweatbands, headbands, an iconic Wilson Pro Staff 97 Racquet, a leather racquet bag, and a range of tennis balls. There is also a range of lifestyle accessories such as towels, socks, keychains, and a canteen created in partnership with Corkcicle.
Altogether the collection combines Wilson’s old-school designs with Kith’s aesthetics. To accompany the launch of the collection a lookbook shot at The Westside Tennis Club in Forest Hills (home of the U.S. Open for sixty years) has been released.
‘With the introduction of Wilson Sportswear this year, we have been striving to live at the intersection of sport, fashion and culture. There is no better partner than Kith for such an endeavor,’ said Wilson marketing manager Joey Nowak.
