Kith x New Balance Launch First Original
Ronnie Fieg and New Balance celebrate 15 years of collaboration with the release of their first original co-branded sneaker, the "2011". Designed over two years, its name honors the founding year of Kith, blending New Balance's retro running heritage with a fresh upper construction.
🔹 Kith x New Balance 2011 features the same ABZORB cushioning chassis as the 2002 series for a premium feel, with four colorways representing different stages of the brand's growth.
