Kith and Capcom team up for a retro handheld, and it’s surprisingly Y2K

Kith Capcom Evercade console, a gret transparent handheld retro console.

Well, I didn't see this coming. One of the more surprising collaborations of the year, fashion brand Kith has partnered with Capcom and retro gaming console makers Evercade to produce a special edition of the Super Pocket handheld. The result is a curious mix of streetwear design and gaming nostalgia, leaving me a little confused, but also loving that the 2000s transparent tech trend is back.

The Kith for Capcom Super Pocket launches today as part of the label’s Kith Monday Program, which focuses on limited weekly releases and collaborations. This version of Evercade’s pocket console keeps the familiar hardware. Still, it introduces Kith’s design language, from monogrammed casing and co-branded logos to a custom boot screen and special edition packaging featuring artwork from both brands.
