For the fifth year anniversary of Kith and the ten year anniversary of his first collaboration with ASICS, Ronnie Fieg wanted to do something very special. Indeed he has, with the return of the highly coveted “Super Green” GEL-Lyte III that was originally created as a limited edition colorway for charity, along with his own new version of the iconic sneaker, the modified GEL-Lyte 3.1. To present the GEL-Lyte III “Super Green” to the public in the most premium way possible, all pairs were hand-made in Japan, resulting in one of the most luxurious and high grade editions of the model ever released. In the official release details from Fieg, he also states that the GEL-Lyte 3.1 will be one of three colorways of the vintage-meets-modern design released this year, and then it will never be produced again.
With only 700 pairs of each “Super Green” model releasing globally, the collection will launch Saturday, May 21st at both Kith locations and KithNYC.com. Furthermore, Fieg announces that there will be other chances to purchase the shoe before their May 21st release: “There will be two opportunities to secure a pair of either model prior to the official public release – one will be for in-store purchase and the other will be for online. However…both will be surprises as a reward to our loyal customers. Pay close attention to our stores and website early next week to not miss your chance.”
