Matt Varga Among a litany of frequent collaborative partners, KITH has maintained a relationship with Clarks for over a decade. First linking up for a limited collection centered around the Kildare, their output has become a bi-annual occurrence, minting new lookbooks every summer & winter. As the NYC retailer looks to let loose their own Winter ’24 collection, Clarks is joining them to unveil a co-branded 8th Street by Ronnie Fieg capsule.
Each shoe featured here is a Fieg-specific formulation, never appearing in mainline fashion. The Sandford 2, draped in aquatic blue and militaristic olive, offers the most authentic sneaker style. A flush suede upper presents designer inspiration, but the traditional lacing system and pronounced sole make these a match for everyday wear. Naturally, the silhouette iterates on the first edition that made its grand entrance as a part of last year’s collection.
From there, we have the Sunderland, closer to a moccasin or boat shoe in its upper. Despite that relaxed construction up top, it doesn’t cede any territory in terms of performance: a sporty EVA midsole and split outsole that evokes dress aesthetics ensure that. Two tonal treatments in off-white and deep brown are on tap.
Finally, the fullest embrace of winter comes with the return of the Rushden Boot. The silhouette first arrived as a part of 8th Street Fall ’23, and the “Chocolate” colorway from that go-around makes a return here. Joining it is a stealthier “Smoke Grey,” matching a jet-black contrast sole with the same tonality on the shearling fur liner.
All of the above pairs release on October 25th at 11 AM ET via the KITH app, in-store and online.
