K-Way®, the brand behind the iconic rain jacket, announces the launch of a second capsule collection in collaboration with Coral Gardeners, a non-profit organization founded in 2017 on the island of Moorea in French Polynesia, dedicated to coral reef conservation.
Once again, this special collection is the result of a close collaboration between K-Way®’s designers and the Coral Gardeners team, further strengthening the three-year partnership that began in September 2023 between the brand — which has been protecting people from rain and wind for nearly sixty years — and the organization led by CEO Titouan Bernicot.
At the heart of the collection, reflecting a strong commitment to sustainability, are garments made entirely from recycled and low-impact materials. What makes this capsule even more distinctive is the introduction of a new color palette inspired by natural landscapes and oceanic tones — brown corda, black, and blue lagoon — offering a fresh take on some of the brand’s iconic carry-over styles.

The capsule includes: a T-shirt, a vest, the iconic "Le Vrai" K-Way® rain jacket, a pair of shorts, a waist bag, and a phone holder. Each piece is enhanced with a special patch that merges the K-Way® logo with that of Coral Gardeners. The design and fabrics have been carefully developed to ensure waterproofness, water repellency, and wind resistance, with technical details such as heat-sealed seams providing complete protection against the elements.
The capsule will be available in K-Way® stores and online starting May 27th, 2025.
This collection celebrates a deep and lasting partnership between two entities united by a shared passion for the outdoors, the water, and environmental protection.
