KAHN BLEU was always in the back of my mind. Before launching Kahn Bleu, I ran another brand that I poured my heart into. I loved what I created with that project, and it taught me so much about design, community, and myself. But deep down I always felt like I could do more. There was another level of creativity and meaning I hadn’t yet tapped into. I knew I owed it to myself to create something that would not only challenge me but also push me closer to fulfillment.

​

That’s how we arrived at KAHN BLEU.

​

These trousers mark our first launch and will always hold a special place in my heart. Even before starting the brand, before even choosing the name, I already knew the fit and the type of garment I wanted to create. From the beginning I kept asking myself, “How do I elevate this without taking away from its timeless nature?” That question led me to the idea of a hidden pocket tucked into the pleat, a small detail that adds both function and personality without taking away from the classic look.

These photos and videos were gathered over months of preparation, leading up to and following our first launch.
