What to know about Konundrum

One coat, several configurations

Liners, panels, hoods and pockets detach and recombine on longline weather-resistant outerwear, so a single garment covers multiple conditions instead of several.

Military hardware, not soft minimalism

The detailing is drawn from military and industrial equipment: exposed hardware, harness straps and utilitarian construction over clean technical shells.

Small, self-funded, sold direct

Founded in 2020 by two designers, one a Central Saint Martins graduate, it stays self-funded and sells online only, with crypto accepted at checkout.

Brand facts

KONUNDRUM is a German label founded in 2020 by Central Saint Martins graduate Jan-Philipp Kosfeld and Annika Langhammer, built around modular clothing. Its outerwear centres on longline, weather-resistant coats and jackets whose liners, panels, hoods and pockets detach and recombine, so one garment adapts to different conditions and cuts wardrobe waste. The design language is technical and utilitarian, drawing on military and industrial equipment, with visible hardware and harness detailing. The brand is self-funded, sells direct to consumer online, and accepts cryptocurrency payments alongside conventional checkout.
