“We’re three British lads who’ve worked hard to get to where we are. I’m passionate about what I do and always give 100%. If I had the opportunity to have any influence in fashion, this is it. I’m not a designer, but I’m passionate about clothes and I know how men want to look. Functionality and durability were key things for me. It’s a ‘24-hour’ collection; clothing guys can look and feel great in from day to night.” Idris Elba.

British, grounded and cool – Elba’s urban signature style resonates throughout the 250piece collection. Deep tonal colours are paramount; a fusion of midnight blues, graphite greys, and jet-black sealed with signature-scar detail and a pop of cobalt blue emphasises the finest fabrics. Some of the key garments have been named to reflect Idris’ personal journey.

Made from 100% butter-soft premium leather and contrasting heavy coated zips, The Leading Leather Racer Jacket is a hero piece, reflecting the gritty, urban style of the star. Down-filled outerwear at the highest quality features throughout with attention to detail at its finest. The Aviator Down Parka with a fur-trimmed hood, monogrammed lining and internal pocket detailing makes for a powerful winter staple.
