Abercrombie is known for releasing drops with big-name brands like the NFL and The White Lotus—but its latest collaboration, with an if-you-know-you-know Westernwear label, might just be its most exciting yet. Today, the retailer launched a capsule collection with Kemo Sabe, an Aspen-based outfitter that’s earned a cult following for its high-end boots and cowboy hats, which look just as good on city streets as they do at the ranch.
Our Abercrombie x Kemo Sabe wish list
Made from materials like genuine leather and durable denim, the collection blends Kemo Sabe’s distinctly Western point of view with Abercrombie & Fitch’s youthful, more pared-back aesthetic. The result: airy blouses with Peter Pan collars, denim jackets and miniskirts with hoedown-ready stitching, and chunky belts and turquoise jewelry that feel cool rather than costumey.
It also (smartly) fills a missing niche in Kemo Sabe’s offerings, considering the brand doesn’t currently sell dresses, jeans, or light jackets—all categories in which Abercrombie excels. Sure, they all go together, but they’re also easy to mix in with the rest of your cold-weather wardrobe for a little extra cowgirl flair.
Prices range from $50 to $500, while pieces from Kemo Sabe’s in-house line regularly surpass $1,000. Top sizes go from XXS to XL, while bottoms range from 24 to 34 and are available in both regular and curvy cuts. If you’ve ever seen an influencer take a trip to Aspen, you’ve seen them stop by the store for a customized souvenir—and now you can pick up the same label for way less money and hassle. Win-win, right?
The collab is a smart move for both brands, but it’s also a smart investment on your part, considering that horse-girl style is just starting to take off. The spring-summer runways were packed with Western and equestrian references: bolo ties at Brandon Maxwell, riding boots at The Garment, fringed dresses at LoveShackFancy. Pick up these pieces now and you’ll want to wear them all the way through summer.
While it’s hard to pick favorites—that’s why we included nearly the entire collection below—we’ll direct you to the on-trend tassel necklace, the two-tone leather jacket with the potential to become an heirloom piece, and the chocolate-brown dress that speaks to the season’s biggest color trend. Dive into the collab below, and be prepared to act fast, since we’re expecting this stuff to sell out quickly.
