The New 'Concepts' Fall 2018 collection made its debut in preparation for the upcoming colder seasons -- the range is comprised of a series of versatile everyday staples. All of the cut-and-sew pieces are made in the US using premium Japanese fabric materials. Some of the items in the new seasonal capsule include short- and long-sleeve shirts with graphic prints and embroidery, custom hoodies using heavyweight French Terry alongside a branded Concepts metallic motif and a water-resistant coach jacket with thick black herringbone lining.
Additional key pieces include beach shorts, gym shorts, airy track pants crafted with technical stretch fabrics and gusset leg openings with adjustable elements, and the Lux Lounge bottoms. The latest collection will be available for purchase online and at flagship locations in Boston, New York and Cambridge beginning August 17th.
