The nonnative Fall/Winter 2026 collection explores a wardrobe designed to transition between urban environments and the outdoors through layered technical apparel. The lineup includes voluminous outerwear, high-neck knitwear, utility trousers, shirting, and lifestyle accessories, with military-inspired design codes appearing throughout the collection. Flight jackets crafted from premium leather sit alongside fatigue jackets that combine traditional fabrics with GORE-TEX technology, reinforcing the season's emphasis on functional outerwear.
Relaxed aviation-style trousers feature multiple utility pockets for added functionality, while zip-through high-neck knits and textured mid-layers provide warmth and layering versatility. The collection focuses on understated technical construction, pairing practical materials with silhouettes suited to both city wear and outdoor conditions. The nonnative Fall/Winter 2026 collection begins rolling out through phased deliveries starting in August and will also be available from select global retailers, including HBX.
