Brigade aims to raise their own standard with the launch of its two-part Fall/Winter 2026 collection.
As you may recall, Complex named the New York-based independent brand one of 30 you should know back in April, specifically zeroing in on their “Me vs. the Ave” collection from last year.
The bar is set considerably higher for Fall/Winter 2026, with Brigade founder and creative director Aaron Maldonado, who also shot the new collection’s campaign, noting that their latest offerings yet again emphasize their guiding ethos.
“Streetwear is an attitude or a tone more than anything else,” Maldonado said in a statement shared with Complex. “Brigade will never do or represent anything we don’t actually do. Our heart is in it.”
An intentional, refined approach is apparent across all pieces from the collection. Runner caps, for one, were made using a new fabric. For denim and track pants, you’ll notice updated fit details and fresh embellishments.
Brigade’s Fall/Winter 2026 lineup will be spread across two distinct drops, one this month and another in November.
