It’s always nice when you can clearly see the style progression of someone through the clothes that they make. It makes you, as a fan, feel like you’re on that journey with them, and that’s exactly what’s happened with K-two Studios.
Founded and led by Kaleb Keller, the brand started through his popularity on Instagram for his streetwear fits that would constantly blow up, inspiring him to release his first item - the Double Pocket Cargos. The brand has since evolved and become much more refined, having a distinct design language that combines aesthetics of grunge, skating and Americana with modern silhouettes.
With a much more diverse offering, one of the pieces they’ve come to be known for is their Fisherman knit. Featuring a contemporary, boxy fit and a unique dying process that gives the sweater a two-tone look through the use of ribbing, the piece has gone somewhat viral and become a staple in K-two’s ongoing releases. A V2 was also released recently, with updated features such as perforated details on the inside of the arm as well as a new core black colourway.
Something else the brand has become known for is their denim. Always seeming to have the perfect relaxed fit with the perfect leg opening and hip width, K-two’s denim pieces have a wide fit without looking ill-fitting. A recent release saw their signature denim receive a coated treatment through a 4-step process of washing, stoning, hand-staining and clear wax coating. The results are denim sets with a beautiful mud wash or leathery look - depending on which wash you choose. The denim jacket is a thing of beauty in itself, with an exaggerated collar and removable shoulder pads to give off a dramatic look.
As Black Friday approaches, K-two Studios are gearing up for a release to go along with it - teasing a drop of over 20 products on their website with a link to early access. Make sure to sign up - you won’t want to miss this drop.
