ISKO SS26: redefining denim through innovation and comfort, with responsibility at its core.
ISKO’s SS26 collection represents the next chapter in denim innovation, combining sustainability, performance, and creative versatility. This collection reaffirms ISKO’s commitment to circular fashion, introducing fabrics that challenge conventional boundaries while meeting the growing demand for responsible design.
The SS26 collection offers a range of advanced fabric technologies designed to cater to diverse needs with the highlight of the collection being ISKO Comfort2, a fabric designed for unparalleled comfort and versatility. By combining the softness and flexibility of knit fabrics with the durability of woven denim, Comfort2 introduces a weave, with stretch in the warp and in the weft, that moves effortlessly with the body. This technology ensures both freedom of movement and exceptional resilience, making it ideal for functional wear, everyday comfort, and forward-thinking design. Then, there is ISKO™ Multitouch, a single fabric offering multiple textures and styles, ideal for bold silhouettes like wide-leg and balloon designs and ISKO™ Iconic, a transformation of classic denim through washable finishes that amplify texture, shine, and contrast, ideal for modern and vintage-inspired designs.
At the heart of the collection is ISKO’s use of Next-Gen recycled materials powered by RE&UP. These materials, derived from textile waste, deliver the same performance, durability, and luxury feel as virgin fibers – showing that sustainability does not mean compromise.
With SS26, ISKO demonstrates how denim can continue to evolve, balancing innovation with sustainability and supporting a future where fabrics are both high-performing and responsible.
