The Ritz-Carlton teamed up with menswear label Late Checkout to launch an exclusive drop called Late Checkout: A Ritz-Carlton Story, which shares nine curated pieces to redefine everyday luxury. The capsule collection leans into Late Checkout's hotel-inspired aesthetic and incorporates The Ritz-Carlton's iconic lion and crest for a balance of playful, irreverent style with sophistication.
In this bold and unexpected collaboration, fans will find elevated wardrobe staples like work jackets, V-neck sweaters, crewneck sweatshirts and versatile t-shirts, plus joggers, caps and towels with co-branded details.
The Ritz-Carlton and Late Checkout introduced their debut collection with a campaign film directed by Rogelio and produced by Little Spain, featuring award-winning actor Josh Hutcherson, who takes on the role of a diligent employee.
