GREENSBORO, N.C. — Lee, the American denim brand, announced on October 15, 2026, via Business Wire the launch of the Lee 101 x Indian Motorcycle capsule collection, a collaboration between its premium Lee 101 line and Indian Motorcycle.

The menswear collection is built on Lee archival silhouettes, including the Rider Jacket and the 101Z Jean, made from premium Italian selvedge denim from Candiani Mills in raw and black washes. It also includes a herringbone Union-Alls jumpsuit, a chambray 101 workshirt and heavyweight graphic tees, with co-branded details and Indian Motorcycle's headdress logo.

Sedgwick Cole Jr., senior director of global design at Lee, said Lee 101 represents the pinnacle of the brand's heritage denim and that the capsule was inspired by the dual meaning of the Original Rider. Mike Kennedy, CEO of Indian Motorcycle, said the collaboration reflects shared roots in craftsmanship, individuality and adventure, arriving as the motorcycle maker marks its 125th anniversary.

Founded in 1901, Indian Motorcycle is known as America's first motorcycle company. Lee, a Kontoor Brands (NYSE: KTB) brand with a 135-year history, sells products in more than 100 countries.

The collection went on sale October 15, 2026, at Lee.com in the U.S. and Europe, at owned retailers in Europe, and at the Bike Shed Moto Co. retail shop in Los Angeles, where the brands were set to host a private launch event that evening.
