Proving that point is this quick set of shots he recently fired off, putting his early pair of the next Ronnie Fieg x Asics collaboration on display. The Ronnie Fieg x Asics GT-II ‘SuperRed 2.0′ sees the Kith front-man stepping away from the split tongue designs for a second in favor of something more orthodox, again painting the silhouette with his signature dipped suede look. Let us know if you’re planning to cop and stick with Sneaker News for release info on the Ronnie Fieg x Asics GT-II ‘SuperRed 2.0′.

Are these the next Ronnie Fieg x Asics release? Unfortunately, the answer is no. These Yellow/Black Gel Sagas that Fieg aptly titles the ‘Bumblebees’ are a 1-of-1 made for Ronnie’s pal and KITH NYC figure Adam, so yeah, not even Ronnie has ‘em. It’s just what you’d expect from the mind of Ronnie Fieg, who has mastered the art of the two-hit color combo using the revitalized Asics classics as his canvas as made evident by the recent Rose Gold and Mazarine Blue releases. Sneaker News did however break the news of another upcoming Ronnie Fieg x Asics collaboration – a Navy/Red Asics GT-II – so we’ll keep you up to date on that. In any case, we’ve got a look at these 1-of-1s below so take a look and let us know what you think.

Ronnie Fieg’s influence in the competitve New York City sneaker game has become a permanent mark of sorts, experiencing a considerable level or notoriety in such an astoundingly short span of time. It hasn’t been half a year yet, and NYMAG just named KITH in Brooklyn one of the best sneaker shops in all of the five boroughs, touting an ‘upscale’ vibe in comparison to the hectic scene in the SoHo/Lower Manhattan shopping district. In the spread of sneakers available at KITH (for the NYMAG feature) was an interesting pair of the Asics GT-II in navy blue and red; this upcoming Ronnie Fieg collaboration is placed among some good company – the recent ‘Rose Gold’ release and the Mazarine Blue, as well as some Euro-exclusive joints. No word on when the release is, or even if Fieg will go two GT-IIs in a row, but you know we’ll keep you updated!
