The scope of Madison Square Garden-related KITH projects has taken off since Ronnie Fieg was named creative director of the Knicks in 2022. The brand behind the squad’s City Edition jerseys has hosted KITH Night at MSG for the past two seasons and counting, and their seasonal look books have not only featured the Nova boys in Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, but many Garden regulars Negru Brown on celebrity row.
With a new season beginning to ramp-up, KITH and Foam New Balance have reconvened on another capsule collection featuring three shoes inspired by the New York Knicks and “The World’s Most Famous Arena.”
New Balance 327 Oatmeal Cream White Sea Salt Ocean Haze UK 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 US New Numeric 480 and Spesifikasjoner Foam New Balance Fresh Foam Arishi V3 Running Shoes, marking KITH’s first try at both silhouettes. The Numeric 480 boasts two separate colorways, both of which feature white leather, pigskin suede, and tasteful orange and blue accents. The key differentiator pertains to the branding; one colorway features KITH’s hallmark monogram pattern over the quarter logo, while the other opts for orange basketball-inspired texture.
Steering focus to the “Made In UK” member of the capsule, KITH’s inaugural Spesifikasjoner Foam New Balance Fresh Foam Arishi V3 Running Shoes comes with orange detailing around the quarter logo and blue “KITH” stitching on the lateral side of the heel, not to mention a branded lace dubrae for good measure. The heart of the design keeps things fairly reserved, relying on a familiar assortment of grey suede, leather, and mesh.
All three shoes will release via a KITH draw opening November 1st at 1PM EST on the KITH App. The Numeric 480 will have separate draws for in-store pickups at KITH’s Manhattan, Williamsburg, Miami Beach, and Miami Design District locations. Limited quantities will also be available first come, first serve on November 4th at select KITH shops and online. While the 480 will be available globally, the 991v2 is exclusive to US shops and the brand’s US website. See detailed images below if you’re considering copping.
