Kenneth Cole Collection Men
The individual as rebel is what defines the menswear collection. Leather makes an appearance, but so does a liberal use of traditional tailoring blended with pieces more readily associated with casual street style. A classic blazer with a defined cut is teamed with sweatpants to create a new suit for the twenty-first century; sporty color-blocking combines with a slim, fitted, angular silhouette.
This modern-day New Yorker is happy to mix shirt and tie with leather boxing shorts, or with a tapered trousers. Outerwear doubles as summer jackets, while knitwear doubles as outerwear. High-top trainers reference the gym, while laptop bags recall the office. As with the women's collection, the only rule here is that there are no rules.
