A line developed within the KINLOCH ANDERSON brand family to establish a clearer connection with younger consumers and the online market, exclusively for Musinsa. Rather than directly reproducing the parent brand’s traditional suits or British-style tailoring, it offers daily casualwear that builds on the structure and refinement of menswear while adding a contemporary sensibility, practicality, and ease of wear. While Kinloch by Kinloch Anderson covers a broad range of casualwear and Kinloch Anderson Edinburgh extends contemporary British casualwear through both department stores and online, this line serves as a digital-first extension that reaches younger consumers primarily through Musinsa.

It reinterprets the history of tartan and kilts in a contemporary way, offering a casual product range that includes clothing as well as fashion accessories such as bags. Its role is distinct from the mainline, which directly carries the parent brand’s authentic tailoring and Highland dress, and it complements everyday wear occasions. While Kinloch Anderson Edinburgh presents contemporary British casualwear through multiple sales channels and Connect Kinloch focuses on younger consumers and online channels, this brand serves as the foundation for the casual segment of the brand family.
