New York lifestyle brand Kith partners with German automaker BMW for Chapter IV, expanding their collaborative relationship. The arrival marks fifteen years since Ronnie Fieg established Kith. The full capsule reaches flagship locations, the Kith website, and the brand application on Monday, August 17, 2026.
The release centers on colorways pulled directly from historical BMW vehicles. Inka Orange anchors the selection, appearing on restored classic cars and apparel. Cinnabar Red references the E30 M3 era. Techno Violet revisits nineties BMW production. Vitality Green provides a custom shade developed specifically for Kith releases.
Outerwear serves as the primary focal point. You find a multi-paneled leather jacket produced with AVIREX. Leather moto jackets under the Braun and Dewitt names offer heavyweight options. Souvenir jackets and lightweight track tops round out the outerwear selection.
Casual sportswear covers daily wear options. Heavyweight Nelson fleece styles include quarter-zips and pullover hoodies. Braxton track zip jackets pair with matching fleece pants. Graphic T-shirts present archival BMW imagery alongside custom branding. Knitted sweaters and woven button-down shirts add structural variety to your wardrobe.
Leather goods offer premium travel solutions. Monogram-embossed leather builds overnight bags, garment duffle bags, cardholders, and watch cases. Headwear options include driver caps made from sheep suede in partnership with '47.
Lifestyle accessories extend into cabin and vehicle accessories. Custom BMW X5 floor mats and branded license plate frames cater to vehicle owners. Ceramic mugs, catchall trays, car air fresheners, silk bandanas, jacquard towels, and woven blankets fit indoor spaces.
A detailed collectible highlights the vehicle connection. Designers constructed a 1:18 scale model of the 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi in Inka Orange using 169 individual parts and 290 decorative components. The model features interior caramel leather detailing and specialized packaging.
The release coincides with two one-of-one automobile restorations completed by Ronnie Fieg. A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi features an M30 engine restoration and custom interior leather. A 1987 BMW M6 E24 receives a full rotisserie restoration with an S38 engine. Both vehicles display matching Inka Orange paint and custom caramel leather seats.
