Kappa Kontroll has unveiled its Spring/Summer 2019 collection, delivering a fusion of modern sportswear and archival Kappa pieces. Tapping into British sporting subcultures, Kappa Kontroll’s key pieces include a high-vis orange windbreaker, the selection of quarter-zip cycling jerseys and half-zip knits, and its range of color-blocked track pants.

Kappa Kontroll’s line up for SS19 uniquely blends its sporting heritage with a tailoring-meets-casuals aesthetic, seen in a lookbook that captures a mixture of mid-’80s youth culture and today’s sport-luxe trends. The iconic Italian heritage brand will be dropping its logo-heavy SS19 collection worldwide online and in select stores very soon.
