The K-pop star has worked with his longtime partners at the fashion house to create his own capsule, the brand announced Monday (May 18). Featuring a special logo, [CKJK], the clothing line will feature Jung Kook’s personal touches on everything from custom denim washes to hidden embroidery patterns, with staples including a ’90s trucker jacket, baggy low-rise jeans, graphic tees, sweatshirts and a racer jacket, according to WWD‘s exclusive.
“Jung Kook was involved throughout the entire creative process, from the initial concept discussions through to the final design details,” reads WWD. “Both he and the Calvin Klein teams wanted to ensure his presence was felt across the capsule … the entire collection is rooted in Jung Kook’s love for motorcycles so it has an inherent connection to his personality.”
Pieces from the collection will be available to purchase online starting Tuesday (May 19). The next day, select stores will begin carrying the line to shop in person.
“Jung Kook has been a global ambassador for Calvin Klein for years, and we’ve seen the powerful connection he has with his audience globally,” said global brand president David Savman in a statement to WWD. “His cultural impact, authenticity and style resonate deeply with both our existing customers and his highly engaged fanbase. What makes this capsule especially compelling is the way it combines Jung Kook’s influence with Calvin Klein’s most recognizable styles to create something that feels fresh, personal and culturally relevant while remaining true to the brand.”
The fashion collaboration comes amid a busy touring schedule for BTS, who dropped its first full-length album in five years, ARIRANG, in March. The project spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
Coming up, the Bangtan Boys have five shows scheduled for Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas to close out the month of May, after which they’ll travel to Busan, South Korea. The global trek is slated to wrap in March next year.
