ISKO SS 27 © 2025 ISKO
ISKO presents its SS27 collection at Kingpins Amsterdam, highlighting new developments in fabric innovation that bring together denim heritage and forward-looking design. Through unique fiber blends, summer denim is redefined by unprecedented material concepts and responsibly engineered fabrics.

Key highlights include:

+++ Mechanica: a mono-material stretch concept delivering real elasticity through construction alone, made entirely from organic and recycled cotton, without synthetics.

+++ Wondersoft: fabrics offering superior softness and comfort, crafted for a premium handfeel.

+++ Lightweights: special fiber blends combining durability and breathability for summer wear.

+++ Authentik: preserves the true denim look while adding wearability for everyday comfort.

+++ Contemporary: expressive, character-driven constructions using new slubs and twills.

+++ Expanded rigid range: new ring-spun slubs, twills, and textured constructions that enrich denim's natural depth and character.

To meet evolving consumer demands and market trends, ISKO SS27 explores diverse thematic stories that combine heritage inspiration, contemporary style, and functional innovation:

+++ Heritage: slub-heavy fabrics inspired by '70s workwear and Japanese denim.

+++ Utility: rugged 2/1 constructions and linen wefts for authentic workwear appeal.

+++ Neo Vintage & Y2K: resinized handfeels and nostalgic washdowns for a fashion-forward statement.

+++ Sunbleached: lighter, faded tones and fresh overdyes for seasonal versatility.

Color is a central element, with sun-faded shades in Sunbleached, grey tones such as Xenon Grey and Blue Stone, and raw, lived-in Dirty Whites.

The collection further includes developments from ISKO™ Luxury by PG, blending advanced fabric innovation with refined design to bring denim into the luxury space.

Finally, event-goers get to experience City Glam and D-Lite, two fabric concepts that explore a more fashion-driven approach to color and finishes, giving designers new opportunities to create expressive, contemporary denim while retaining authentic character.

“SS27 is a clear expression of ISKO’s vision: to align creativity with market performance and sustainability,” said Tayfun Akbay, Chief Commercial Officer at ISKO. “This collection strengthens our offer to brands and designers seeking premium denim with lasting appeal: high-performing, responsibly made and rich in authentic character. Kingpins is where these ideas meet the market and where the next season’s opportunities begin.”

The overarching theme of PLEASURE stands for fashion as an emotional space, as an expression of attitude and cultural reflection. Colours, surfaces, and materials become vehicles for self-confidence and joie de vivre.

“Action helps us change what we do!”

DAY 0 takes place deliberately before PERFORMANCE DAYS begins. It is conceived as a space for reflection, dialogue and active engagement — a moment to pause before the fair, rethink established systems and address sustainability not as a trend, but as a fundamental transformation challenge. Under the guiding metaphor “Turn the Tap Off”, DAY 0 focuses on root causes rather than symptoms, systemic change rather than isolated solutions, and collective responsibility rather than individual silos.

VAUDE eliminates PFAS from all products

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are now detectable worldwide – in drinking water, soil and the human body. These so-called “forever chemicals” are considered hazardous to health and potentially carcinogenic, as they do not break down and remain in the environment permanently. Despite these risks, PFAS are still used in a wide range of products. More than 15 years ago, VAUDE made a strategic decision to gradually eliminate PFAS from all product categories.
