Company Introduces the Kan-D Fabric to Join FW20 By Amy Duong | Published 2020-12-02 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kand References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2020/11/cp-company-kan-d-fall-winter-2020-release-information) [C.P.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/end-and-cp-company) Company unveils a new and progressive fabrication by the name of Kan-D to its Fall/Winter 2020 offerings this year. The innovative material is short for "K(c)lear Achronic Nylon (garment)Dyed." This is based on a flattened iteration of monofilament nylon yarn materials. The yarn is flattened to make it more reflective and also slightly transparent as well. This also results in a water-resistant sensibility that is both breathable, offering a deconstructed finish when it is completed with [garment dyeing treatment processes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garment-dyed-nylon). The material is used to make three iterations of jackets and each one has the [detachable poly-fleece layer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jjjjound-x-descente) on the inside, secured zipper enclosure, and the brand's signature goggle hood. The colors include Golden yellow, black, Martini Olive, Total Eclipse, and Pompeian Red. Image Credit: C.P.
