TRC returns to Pitti Immagine Uomo with the new collection Spring/Summer 2026: a bold evolution in the brand’s journey, which this year celebrates the centenary of Grassi – a historic textile partner – and makes full use of its expertise, adding a touch of jersey and technical hybridization to the workwear interpretations of Candiani’s most innovative fabrics.

At the heart of SS26 is a dialogue between heritage and future, where Lombardy’s manufacturing tradition is reflected in garments with a workwear spirit, increasingly enriched by technical details, innovative treatments, and functional constructions.
The partnership between Grassi – which has been reinterpreting workwear in a contemporary key for a century – and Candiani – a benchmark for sustainable, high-performance denim – gives life to a collection of about seventy pieces, where technical innovation takes center stage through material research, high-quality finishing, and versatile silhouettes.
Trousers are the true protagonists of the season, with an expanded offering that includes iconic pieces such as the 5 Pocket Loose Cimosato, made from sand-colored denim with a vintage flavor.
Alongside these, the Engineer Cargo Shorts and utility trousers in technical nylon affirm the brand’s connection to the military and functional world, reimagined with a modern aesthetic.
Tops become lighter and more colorful, embracing a visually dynamic summer spirit. Standout pieces include the Clerk Shirt in regenerative écru denim and the Utility Top with ripstop inserts and windproof finishes.
The Engineer Cargo Vest reinterprets the workwear aesthetic in a minimal key, with unexpected color accents such as pink.
The key innovation completing the SS26 collection by TRC is the introduction of colorful sweatshirts and jersey pieces.Among the features of the new t-shirts, sweatshirts, and joggers are deconstructed top silhouettes, such as the absence of rear armholes, and numerous aesthetic and functional details, like the thumbhole cuffs on long sleeves.
These elements result from the brand’s deep research into design and innovation, aiming to create pieces with a strong technical image while preserving the natural quality of cotton, interpreted in a variety of forms.
The selected fabrics are 100% cotton, carefully chosen to be soft and comfortable against the skin.Additionally, special treatments such as marbled (recreating the natural texture of marble), used (giving garments a vintage look), and solarized (mimicking the natural fading from sunlight exposure) highlight the fusion between innovative design and everyday workwear use.
TRC thus reaffirms its vision of technical, conscious, and strongly identity-driven menswear — capable of reinterpreting tradition with an eye toward the future.
To celebrate Grassi’s 100th anniversary and the new SS26 collection, TRC will host a cocktail party at its booth on June 17th from 5:00 PM, featuring a DJ set and a selection of craft beers in line with the brand’s spirit.
