K-Way reveals first-ever Korean collaboration
Paris-born outdoor company K-Way, particularly well-known for its foldable waterproof jackets, is set to launch its debut collection co-designed with a South Korean brand. 

In partnership with Seoul-based contemporary label Lost Management Cities (LMC), K-Way will release a windbreaker jacket and an anorak, both available in two colourways: black and beige. LMC has previously worked on collaborations with outdoor brand Merrell and headwear specialist New Era. 

The co-branded windbreaker features a distinctive curved zip more typical of LMC’s streetwear focus. Each piece will release via local e-retailer Musinsa and K-Way’s own e-commerce site on September 6.

Kappa owner BasicNet, headquartered in Turin, acquired K-Way back in 2004.
