Andrew Rizzo Updated March 4th, 2026: Kith and On Running have officially unveiled the Kith K-Tech 1 & 2, the first models to debut as part of a new multi-year partnership.

The sneakers debut alongside a collection of co-branded apparel, including jackets, tees, sports bras, and more. Drawings will be open from March 4th to March 5th on the Kith App. Additional quantities drop March 6th at 11:00 AM ET in-store, online, and on the Kith App in New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo time zones.

Ronnie Fieg can now add “performance running shoe designer” to his already stacked resume. Debuting under Kith’s new performance line, K-Tech, are two On Running models co-created by Kith and the rising Swiss footwear brand, built by Fieg and co. from the ground up.
A set of videos posted by the Kith founder covers all the bases, showing both samples and final outcomes. Kith previously played a role in introducing the On Running Cloudzone model, although the brand didn’t have a hand in that shoe’s engineering.

The videos above show the On Running x Kith K-Tech 1 & 2, two new co-designed models supposedly set to release sometime this year. Ronnie walks us through early concepts, including a midsole featuring Kith lettering within the open CloudTec cushioning. Ultimately, the brand opts to place Kith branding on the outsole instead. The lower halves appear consistent across both models, while the uppers vary pretty significantly. The K-Tech 1 leans sleek and streamlined, while the K-Tech 2 is more layered in its synthetic paneling. We’ve included screenshots of each model below, though you’ll likely want to watch Ronnie’s videos for a better sense of the tooling.
Both the K-Tech 1 and K-Tech 2 have been unveiled in multiple colorways, ranging from familiar neutrals to preppy green, navy, and burgundy mixes. No release info has been announced as of this writing, but a late 2026 launch seems likely at this juncture.
