British menswear brand Universal Works has launched a collaboration collection with K-Way, the French brand best known for its packable windbreaker jacket, just in time for the British festival season \u2013 and notoriously unpredictable weather.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Under the working title of \u2018Festival Kit\u2019, the K-Way x Universal Works collection features two jackets and a bag, each available in British khaki and French navy.<\/p>\n

Every item is constructed from a recycled version of K-Way\u2019s house fabric. The result is a lightweight and waterproof recycled ripstop. On each piece, K-Way\u2019s instantly recognisable logo, in all its tricolour glory, sits alongside Universal Works\u2019 \u2018UW\u2019 insignia.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The \u2018Watergate Bay Jacket\u2019 is a feature-packed update on the classic windbreaker style, featuring heat-taped seams, two-way zip, adjustable hem, three outer pockets, a rear vent, and, naturally, it\u2019s fully packable.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Porthmeor Jacket\u2019 is a reimagining of Universal Works\u2019 own \u2018Photographer\u2019s Jacket\u2019, this time made in the recycled ripstop performance \u201cwonder fabric\u201d. All the details are what fans of the original jacket would expect, but K-Way has added heat-taped seams, the brand\u2019s signature colour zip, a tab-and-snap detail on the chest, and even a tab inside the lower pocket to attach a tent, pegs, bottle opener or whatever else is on a festival check list.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Universal Works Co-Founder, David Keyte, said: \u201cA raincoat that will keep you dry when you need it, but that you can take off and stow away when you don\u2019t is a godsend for those seemingly endless hours spent waiting for the next band to come on the Pyramid Stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt might be sunny with clear skies, but a sudden downpour is practically guaranteed, so it\u2019s pieces like this that really make the whole festival experience that much more pleasant. But they\u2019re also perfect for a city dweller like myself. When you\u2019re rushing around, getting on and off public transport, it\u2019s exactly what you need.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"K-Way<\/p>\n

The \u2018Festival Bag\u2019 sums up the spirit of the collection \u2013 \u201cfree of unnecessary detail, ultra-reliable and endlessly useful\u201d, also handy to stash either of the jackets, a pair of shades, sun cream (just in case!) and a glow stick or two. Glastonbury ready.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
