Attention to detail is embedded in Kiton's DNA: from the first workshop founded by Ciro Paone in 1968 with ten employees to the current team of forty tailors - love and care for each product remain unchanged. Figures and production have grown, resources and technologies have improved, but passion and craftsmanship remain the main driving forces.
Today, the company goes beyond its recognizable aesthetics associated with classic jackets, suits, and shirts that have brought the brand worldwide fame, and focus on a relaxed yet elegant selection. Kiton's casual wear collection speaks the language of the modern cosmopolitan gentleman, who always looks impeccable. The result is the highest quality clothing with a distinctive style that combines convenience with attention to detail.
Kiton shirts are very personal garments that fit the owner's physique perfectly. It is an elegant and comfortable product that reveals the craftsmanship invested in its creation even at a casual glance. Each strip of fabric is aligned so that the print matches perfectly across the garment, concealing soft, flexible hand stitches that ensure every movement you make is repeated. You feel the uniqueness of a Kiton shirt only when you wear it.
Kiton knitwear is a testament to tradition and a commitment to excellence. Each piece of knitwear is made with the same obsessive attention to detail that characterizes the famous jackets from Naples. The process includes 22 steps, half of which are done by hand. The yarn rests for two days in special cabinets to achieve the right degree of elasticity. After knitting, the fabric is analyzed under backlighting to ensure its perfection. Only after this the garment will be made and inspected again, this time on illuminated mannequins.
Kiton jeans are garments with a cosmopolitan soul and eclectic style. Wearing them is like traveling around the world: Japanese denim, American looms, Neapolitan tailoring. The choice of Kurabo, the finest Japanese organic cotton, made on old looms, ensures the highest quality. It takes three and a half meters of Kurabo for one pair of pants, which is twice as much as standard jeans. The classic Kiton red ribbon reinforces the hem and adds originality. 2% elastane ensures comfort without sacrificing the perfect shape.
Kiton footwear combines tradition and creativity, quality and technical excellence, research and innovation. Each pair is unique and created from the finest materials according to the rules and standards of handmade craftsmanship by the best artisans.
Although the tie is no longer an essential element of a man's wardrobe, a Kiton tie goes beyond an accessory and becomes almost a collectible item for connoisseurs of men's fashion and classic aesthetics. It is an origami form from Naples, made from a piece of silk folded diagonally seven times, from the sides inward without any cuts and internal lining, and finished by hand with a loose stitch that runs along the back, under the fold. This very stitch, "registro," ensures that the tie returns to its perfect original shape even after multiple uses.
Each season, our buyers immerse themselves in the universe of the brand's carefully selected fabrics and craftsmanship to work together with the brand's masters to the smallest details and give you a truly unique Kiton experience.
