ORIGIN OF AREAL

BOSIDENG AND KIM JONES COME TOGETHER TO DEFINE A NEW CHAPTER IN DOWNWEAR 

AREAL — derived from Area and Real — speaks to exploration and return. A journey outward in spirit, grounded in authenticity at its core.

The collection unites Bosideng’s 49 years of expertise in down with Kim Jones’ design-led vision. Operating between outdoor performance and fashion, AREAL introduces a modern approach to downwear. Designed for contemporary life and defined by protection, precision, and adaptability across environments.

 The Designer 

ABOUT KIM JONES

Kim Jones is one of the defining designers of his generation, operating at the intersection of luxury, culture, and art.

AREAL marks the beginning of his collaboration with Bosideng.

 Design Identity: Craftsmanship 

LUXURY SENSIBILITY × TECHNICAL INNOVATION 

Silhouettes — Fashion Aesthetics × Comfort-Driven Tailoring

Silhouettes are designed to balance form and movement. High stand-collar constructions frame the body with clarity while maintaining comfort. Innovative sleeve designs integrate ease and functionality, adapting naturally across different settings. Structural raglan sleeves streamline volume and reduce bulk, using architectural tailoring to enhance mobility and proportion.

Craftsmanship — Precision Within × Refinement Without

Construction is approached with the same restraint as design. A 3D vertical tubular down-locking technique ensures even insulation and prevents down migration. Laser-cut buttonholes, precise to 3mm, reflect the collection’s attention to detail. Lightweight bonding and stitch-free construction create a clean finish and pressure-free comfort, reinforcing AREAL’s commitment to precision, durability, and refinement.

ENGINEERED IN DETAIL

3D Vertical Tubular Down-Locking

3D Vertical Tubular Down-Locking

Engineered compartments lock down fill in place, ensuring even insulation with zero migration — warmth that stays exactly where it’s needed.

Laser-Cut Buttonholes, Precise to 3mm

Laser-Cut Buttonholes, Precise to 3mm

Every buttonhole is laser-cut to a tolerance of 3mm — a level of precision that defines the collection’s commitment to detail.

Fluorine-Free Water Repellency

Fluorine-Free Water Repellency

Advanced water-repellent treatments — from high-density microfibre finish to bio-based C0 jacquard weaving — deliver effective rain protection with minimal environmental impact. Breathable, lightweight, and built for the British climate.

Stitch-Free Bonded Construction

Stitch-Free Bonded Construction

A hi-tech bonding process fuses a windproof membrane to the inner layer — eliminating visible stitching for a clean exterior finish while delivering windproof, waterproof and breathable performance.

Premium Natural Fibres

Premium Natural Fibres

Crafted from the finest natural materials — silk-blend for a soft-focus lustre, pure wool for structured warmth, and wool-cashmere for weightless softness. Each fabric is selected to let the material speak for itself.

Modular Detachable System

Modular Detachable System

A removable inner liner transforms one piece into multiple silhouettes — from a lightweight outer shell to a fully insulated down jacket. One garment, engineered for every occasion.
