  • Ronnie Fieg is one of the most prolific designers we’ve seen in a long time. His output through his brand KITH has garnered him quite the status in the world of sneakers and fashion. This is not through happenstance though, Ronnie had to work hard to get to where he is now, and he’s put out some amazing sneakers along the way. In this video, we take a look at the meteoric rise of Kith and Ronnie Fieg’s career. We of course breakdown some of his best sneaker designs. Enjoy!

    Ronnie is a real inspiration to me the fact that he can go out and design amazing sneakers and collaborate with brands is why I want to be a sneaker designer I want to be able to tell a story with shoes and share my passions just like him first pair of Kith shoes were the 990v2 steel blue I worked at New Balance and copped them months before they dropped now I’m at ASICS and I’m hoping that one day I work my way up to open up a store of my own and collaborate just like him thank you Ronnie your an inspiration 🤘

    Nobody can make Aasics as dope as KITH. An otherwise soccer mom type shoe brand made into something on par with Nike and Adidas is amazing in of itself. Dont even get me into the KITH New Balances. The 1600 Daytona and United Aarows are some of my grails. I've loved your channel for years. Doing an episode on KITH just exalted this channel to a whole other level. I can only hope Off-White is in the near future considering Virgil Abloh's tragic death recently.
