Coastal apparel collaboration celebrates the century-old connection between Newport and Bermuda
NEWPORT, RI / ACCESS Newswire / June 23, 2026 / Today, Goslings, Bermuda’s oldest company and largest export, announced the launch of a limited-edition Summer 2026 Capsule Collection with Kiel James Patrick, the Newport-based lifestyle brand known for classic New England summer style.
Inspired by sailing, rum, and the enduring connection between Newport and Bermuda, the collection features classic nautical apparel and accessories designed for life on and off the water.
The partnership is a natural pairing. Goslings, the brand behind the trademarked Dark ‘N Stormy® cocktail, has long held a special place in Newport, where generations of sailors have returned from the Newport Bermuda Race with bottles of Goslings Black Seal Rum in tow. That tradition has helped make Newport one of the brand’s most meaningful markets.
Established in 1906, the Newport Bermuda Race is one of offshore sailing’s most iconic traditions and remains a defining connection between Newport and Bermuda. This year’s race kicked off from Newport on Friday, June 19, marking the 120th anniversary of the race and 100 years of partnership between the Cruising Club of America and the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club.
For Kiel James Patrick, the partnership is equally fitting. Based on Bowen’s Wharf in Newport, Kiel James Patrick has become synonymous with classic New England summer style. Together, the two brands celebrate a shared spirit of coastal leisure, craftsmanship, and summer tradition.
“This partnership feels like a celebration of a relationship that has existed for generations,” said Malcolm L. Gosling Jr., eighth-generation rum maker at Goslings. “Newport and Bermuda have always shared a unique connection through sailing, hospitality, and of course, rum. Kiel James Patrick captures that spirit of coastal leisure perfectly.”
The limited-edition Summer 2026 Capsule Collection features timeless apparel and accessories inspired by Bermudian rum heritage, Newport style, and the rituals of summer on the Atlantic. The collection is available online and in-store in limited quantities.
The Goslings and Kiel James Patrick Summer 2026 Capsule Collection is available now at KielJamesPatrick.com.
