Ten C, the avant-garde brand known for pushing the boundaries of menswear, is set to unveil its Fall/Winter 25/26 collection during Milan Fashion Week. Designed by the visionary Alessandro Pungetti, this collection explores a fresh creative horizon, paying homage to the wild and profound beauty of nature.
This season’s colour palette is as striking as it is earthy, featuring deep hues that transition from rust reds to burnt oranges and rich browns. Inspired by natural earth tones, particularly the ochres of Terra di Siena, the collection beautifully utilizes these shades to dye the brand’s iconic jersey fabric, OJJ. Through a meticulous crafting process that honours traditional techniques, each garment obtains oxidized to rust-red nuances, resulting in unique and authentic tones that make every piece visually exceptional while providing a distinctive material feel.

Returning to the forefront is the Dust-dyed nylon suede, presented alongside a spectrum of natural hues. The Tactel nylon serves as a bridge between the classic military aesthetic of Ten c and the practical workwear characteristic of the American firefighting uniforms. This creates a perfect fusion with the brand’s DNA—offering oversized puffer jackets that reinterpret comfort and protection while connecting Ten C´s heritage with contemporary influences.
Timeless fabrics like wool, flannel, and velvet are astutely integrated into the brand’s functional ethos. The result? A series of padded outerwear pieces that maintain the elegance and splendor of traditional materials, while fulfilling the highest standards of comfort and protection.
This season also marks the introduction of a rubberized gabardine—a military-inspired fabric featuring an inner rubber coating. This innovation underscores Ten C’s ongoing exploration of high-performing materials with aesthetic value. The waterproof and resilient outerwear options, such as the Fishtail Short Parka, Overcoat, Surcoat, and Field Work Jacket, have been thoughtfully reimagined without compromising their signature structure.
Emphasizing innovation, Ten C also reinterprets the suit concept this season. The new menswear suit includes trousers and an oversized shirt paired with a lightweight mid-layer down jacket. Utilizing tonal fabrics ensures a consistently cohesive and harmonious look.
Ten C´s Fall/Winter collection is a chromatic journey through nature, a testament to the richness of materials, the intensity of colors, and the beauty of textures. It achieves a perfect harmony between form and function, offering a timeless wardrobe that seamlessly blends tradition and innovation.
