K-Way clothing: the cult windbreaker that folds into your pocket

K-Way, the Parisian invention of the pocket windbreaker

The K-Way story starts in Paris in 1965. Sitting on the terrace of the Café de la Paix, Léon-Claude Duhamel watched passers-by caught in a sudden shower and imagined a light, compact rain shell that would always be within reach. First called En-cas, his coated nylon windbreaker was soon renamed K-Way. It folded into a front pouch, featured a colourful zip and quickly became a French family staple. Popularised on screen by La Boum in 1980 and relaunched since 2004 by the Italian group BasicNet, K-Way is now a fully fledged urban fashion brand worn across Europe.

Waterproof, windproof, packable: the K-Way know-how

K-Way's know-how rests on a simple idea: protection from wind and rain without ever weighing you down. The Le Vrai 4.0 Claude jacket is its most advanced version, made from 100% recycled micro ripstop with a stated 10,000 mm waterproof rating, 10,000 g/m²/24h breathability and heat-sealed seams. Like the original, it packs into one of its own pockets. The Travel line applies the same philosophy to getting away: lightweight, water-repellent and crease-resistant fabrics, UV protection and quick drying on the Sergine tee. Technical pieces for the city and the weekend escape that slip into a bag without taking up space.

K-Way Le Vrai 4.0 Claude jacket, Travel line and knitwear

Our selection brings together the K-Way pieces available right now. The short Le Vrai 4.0 Claude jacket, in Blue Depth or Beige Parsnip, captures the spirit of the K-Way windbreaker in a technical, recycled version. From the Travel line, the Journeer zip sweatshirt in light technical fleece comes in Black Pure and Blue Depth, the straight-leg Merager trousers with elasticated waist come in the same shades, and the Sergine tee in Blue Depth folds into its own pocket. For cooler days, the Valter Shaded Yarn knits play on Blue or Grey Beige gradients, while the Chad Buttoned Yarn shows off its buttons in Grey Cinder or Azure Blizzard.

How to wear a K-Way windbreaker with your sneakers

A K-Way windbreaker works as well in the city as on the road. Throw the Le Vrai 4.0 Claude over a sweatshirt or a Valter jumper, with raw denim or chinos and low-top sneakers: a New Balance 2002R, an Adidas Samba or a white Nike Air Force 1 finish the look effortlessly. For a tonal outfit, pair the Journeer sweatshirt and Merager trousers in the same colour, then add a retro runner in neutral tones. The Chad jumper, a little dressier, goes with wide trousers and suede trainers. With the windbreaker folded in your bag, you are ready for any shower.
