HYKE has unveiled a collaborative collection with the American outdoor brand Eddie Bauer.

Launching for the Fall/Winter 2026 season, the collection reimagines iconic pieces from Eddie Bauer’s century-old heritage, which dates back to 1920. The collaboration is rooted in HYKE’s core philosophy of “HERITAGE AND EVOLUTION”—the idea of organically evolving the history and legacy of clothing through a modern lens. Rounding out the apparel are sweatshirts and long-sleeve T-shirts embroidered with original messaging, alongside a triple-collaboration cap co-created with New Era®.

The collection pulls standout models from the Eddie Bauer archives, spotlighting the Skyliner, Canadian Vest, and Kara Koram. Debuting in 1936 as the world’s first patented down jacket, the Skyliner (¥81,400) is defined by its signature diamond quilting, originally designed to keep the insulation in place. HYKE updates the classic with 700-fill-power down and a relaxed, custom-patterned silhouette. The lineup also introduces a women’s exclusive, the Faux Shearling Skyliner (¥84,700), which features plush, sheep-like faux fur sleeves.

The Canadian Vest (¥55,000), a mainstay since 1953, boasts square quilting, a knit collar, and a curved hem reminiscent of a traditional waistcoat. Also developed in 1953 for the American K2 expedition, the Kara Koram mountaineering parka (¥106,700) stands as a testament to Eddie Bauer’s enduring craftsmanship. HYKE’s signature tailoring reconstructs both pieces into distinctly modern silhouettes.

The outerwear shells are crafted from DICROS MAURI, a high-performance fabric by Daiichi Orimono. Though made from 100% polyester, a specialized kneading process during dyeing achieves the remarkably natural, tactile feel of cotton. The resulting fabric is both highly water-repellent and wrinkle-resistant.

Beyond outerwear, the release features a sweatshirt (¥24,200), sweatpants (¥24,200), and a long-sleeve tee (¥19,800), all embroidered with Eddie Bauer’s brand mission: “To inspire, enable, and empower everyone to experience the outdoors and live their adventure.” A faux-fur-trimmed down cap (¥24,200) complete with ear flaps is also available.

To top it off, the three brands have teamed up for the 9THIRTY Eddie Bauer x HYKE Edition (¥9,680), a triple-collaboration cap based on New Era®’s classic 9THIRTY silhouette and embroidered with the same brand ethos.

The Eddie Bauer x HYKE collection will roll out sequentially at select stockists starting Friday, November 13, with the HYKE online store launching the drop at 12:00 p.m. that same day. Release dates and available items will vary by retailer. (*All prices include tax.)
