Etymology 1

English from the 14th century, from a Dutch kitte, a wooden vessel made of hooped staves. Related to Dutch kit "tankard". The further etymology is unknown.

The further widening of the sense to a collection of parts sold for the buyer to assemble emerges in US English in the mid 20th century.

   • 2011 November 10, Jeremy Wilson, “screen size”, Telegraph:

     A sell-out crowd of 10,000 then observed perfectly a period of silence before the team revealed their black armbands, complete with stitched-in poppies, for the match. After Fifa’s about-turn, it must have been a frantic few days for the England kit manufacturer. The on-field challenge was altogether more straightforward.
