Kith for BMW 2026 Collection: Release, Date, Info

As part of Kith‘s 15th anniversary, the streetwear brand is once again teaming up with BMW for the fourth chapter of their ongoing partnership — presenting a collection of apparel, accessories and bespoke automobiles, including Ronnie Fieg‘s 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi and 1987 BMW M6 E24.

The four-chapter journey between Kith and BMW has told a color story grounded in a celebration of BMW’s archive. The collaborative color palette — which has thus far included the M3 E30’s signature Cinnabar Red, the Kith-created Vitality Green and the rare Techno Violet — now welcomes Inka Orange, heralded by enthusiasts.

The color first hit the scene in the 02 series in 1971 and became the defining color of BMW’s formative sporting years in the early 1970s. While it was first created as a high-visibility color for inclement conditions, the vibrant Inka Orange hue became the ideal color to showcase the significantly redesigned proportions of BMW’s cars as it evolved into a highly regarded performance brand. The color slowly disappeared with time but represents an important era for BMW and is revered by collectors.

To tribute the iconic color, Fieg developed a one-of-one bespoke version of the car that is forever tied to Inka Orange, the 3.0 CSi. With a 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi as the foundation, Fieg and BMW helmed a complete frame-off restoration. The body was stripped to bare metal and subsequently KTL-treated and repainted. The car was carefully rebuilt with original components pulled from various BMW archives, including the M30 Big Six engine, transmission, rear axle, suspension, brakes and more. An embossed Kith monogram decorates the custom caramel leather interior, with fully restored instrumentation and wood trim complementing it.

BMW concluded production of the 3.0 CSi’s E9 chassis in 1979 and introduced the E24 6 Series. Fieg nods to the 3.0 CSi’s direct descendant with a one-of-one bespoke 1987 BMW M6 E24 also featuring the Inka Orange paint color. The car underwent a complete rotisserie restoration which maintained its original character while adding Kith design details and subtle modern enhancements. As with the 3.0 CSi, the body was stripped to bare metal and totally rebuilt, including its S38 inline-six engine, Getrag 5-speed manual transmission, differential, suspension, brakes, OEM BBS Style 5 wheels and more. The interior also features caramel leather and an embossed Kith monogram.

Kith for BMW 2026 is set for release on Aug. 17 at 11 a.m. EST at Kith stores, kith.com and the Kith app.

Kith has been busy cooking up collaborations for summer 2026. The brand has also unveiled a “Linen Collection” with Nike featuring an Air Max 95 and Air Force 1 Low. The 15th anniversary of Kith is also being marked by Fieg and his brand creating their first original sneaker silhouette for New Balance, the Kith x New Balance 2011.
