KICHUL FW26 Vintage School Style: Six Hoodie-and-Denim Outfit Steps

Korean label KICHUL interprets 1990s school-inspired vintage style for its FW26 lookbook. We distinguish that lookbook from a separately listed 2026 waffle hoodie and a 2025 carry-over raw denim product, then show how to recreate the mood with basics you may already own.

How to

1. KICHUL calls its FW26 inspiration a reinterpretation of 1990s vintage school style, not a literal uniform. Begin with a familiar plain tee and jeans, and focus on the overall proportions instead of buying every lookbook piece.
2. Choose one textured top: a waffle zip hoodie or a knit cardigan you already own. KICHUL's separate FW26 Grit Waffle Hood Zip-up lists an 80% cotton, 20% polyester main fabric, semi-oversized fit and salt-washed finish. These do not establish an objective warmth rating.
3. Use medium or dark denim and inspect how the hem meets your shoes. The separate Midnight Raw Wide Denim listing dates to FW25, so it is not presented as the exact FW26 lookbook garment.
4. If the hoodie is roomy, keep the inner tee light; if the jeans are wide, keep footwear simple. Try hoodie plus dark denim and plain sneakers for weekends, or exchange the hoodie for a neutral cardigan for a quieter look.
5. Read care instructions before buying. The waffle hoodie lists cold water, mild detergent, a gentle cycle and shade drying, recommends dry cleaning, and warns against bleach and tumble drying. The raw-denim listing separately notes possible shrinkage and color transfer. Follow each garment's current care label.
6. Check sleeve, shoulder and trouser length in a mirror, then sit and walk. Use the lookbook for styling ideas only; verify exact sizing, stock, care and returns on each retailer page. You may already own everything needed.

One more tip

The named items are not claimed to be the exact garments photographed together. Midnight Raw denim is a 2025 FW listing, not a new FW26 launch. Raw denim may transfer color or shrink; be careful around light-colored accessories. No first-hand testing is claimed.
