Expanding from a small annex in the back area of the now-closed Atrium, Kith has since expanded to global brand known for its curation of hip footwear and apparel as well as its own in-house brand of gear. Combining those two business streams is a collaboration with Vault by Vans, which dresses up two LX models in the brand’s current seasonal patterns.
Releasing in the Slip-On LX and Authentic LX, the Kith x Vault by Vans sees three of its statement patterns of Medallion. Azulejo Tile, and Vintage Rose. Each silhouette boasts a lux construction of woven canvas needlepoint, with a logo lock-up appearing on the insoles and a high-foxing vulcanized rubber Lucky. Each pair will come packaged in custom Kith monogrammed shoeboxes.
The entire collaboration, marshmallow in adult ($110), pre-school ($55), and infant sizes ($50), will be available beginning on July 25th at Kith flagship locations in SoHo, Brooklyn, Miami, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Paris, and Hawaii as well as their online shop beginning at 11am ET.
