Us at Ten are very much for the revival of Kappa. Wasn’t allowed to wear it as a yoof (‘bit common’ – my mum) but now it’s now been totally rehabb’d, in large part thanks Marcelo Burlon. Yup, our new favourite Italian/Argentinian stallion (we chatted to him in the latest issue – read it here) and his semi-eponymous label Marcelo Burlon County of Milan have collaborated with Kappa on a special capsule collection. That capsule, first teased on the catwalk in Milan, will feature Kappa’s boy-girl back-to-back logo sat on top of Marcelo’s own and is based on the classic Kappa tracksuit – zippy on top and with a stand up collar, it comes in a palette of black, red and a sort of khaki-ish green, plus some tees and sweaters for those who aren’t quite ready to don a tracksuit just yet. We believe that this is what one would technically be called sportswear, but it’s sportswear too nice to actually do any sport in it. Good for us. Click below to pre-order the collection…
