In a remarkable fusion of fashion and culture, Kith's latest flagship store in Seoul, South Korea, is set to open with a highly anticipated release: the third installment of the GEL-LYTE III Remastered, a collaboration between Ronnie Fieg and ASICS.
The GEL-LYTE III Remastered pays homage to its heritage with classic design elements, including the iconic split tongue and signature formstripes. This edition, however, introduces a striking color palette of blue, red, white, and black, echoing the vibrant South Korean flag. The upper has been meticulously crafted with a combination of quilted suede and hairy suede overlays, offering a rich texture and sophisticated aesthetic. Complementary details such as a terry cloth lining and a classic rubber outsole enhance both comfort and durability.
Adding a personalized touch, the sneakers feature FIEG embroidery on the tongue and ASICS GEL branding on the heel. The insole footbeds boast custom co-branding from Kith and ASICS, highlighting the unique collaboration.
The exclusive Ronnie Fieg for ASICS GEL-LYTE III Remastered - Seoul will be available through a drawing, which opens on today exclusively via the Kith App.
For sneaker enthusiasts and fashion aficionados, limited quantities of this custom style will be available alongside the grand opening of Kith Seoul on Friday, May 31st. Additionally, the collection will be accessible at Kith Tokyo and online at 11AM EST/CET on Kith.com, EU.Kith.com, and the Kith App.
