References: mackintosh & cpcompany
Mackintosh and C.P. Company present a merged trench and jacket collection that reinterprets two classic silhouettes using a gum-pulled bonded cotton fabric developed through combined material research. The collaboration blends Mackintosh’s signature raincoat tailoring with C.P. Company’s utilitarian design language. The collection is set to debut in select retail locations and online through both partners, with availability expected at Dover Street Market Ginza.
The capsule focuses on a single-breasted trench coat updated with a detachable goggle hood, reflecting C.P. Company’s hallmark design element, and a re-engineered Goggle Jacket constructed in structured rubberized cotton. Both outerwear pieces emphasize a contrast of textures between the coated cotton and technical garment components, uniting British waterproof tailoring with Italian sportswear innovation. The capsule will be offered in select Mackintosh and C.P. Company stores worldwide as part of their first collaborative release.
