Kith's founder, Ronnie Fieg, and his partnership with Clarks runs deeper than just a simple collaboration. The Kith founder has his sublabel with the heritage footwear brand 8th Street by Ronnie Fieg, which has launched inline Clarks collections alongside threeway collabs with adidas. Following up on the Spring 2024 drop back in April, 8th Street by Ronnie Fieg’s Winter 2024 drop is taking place later this week.
The collection features eight footwear pieces and spans between Clarks Originals and Vasque, the latter offering up the Skywalk Boot in two seasonal hues. Subtle Ronnie Fieg branding hits the high-top boots, while ballistic nylon upper, supple suede overlays and a Gore-Tex lining make them perfect for the colder months ahead.
For the Clarks Originals side of the collection, Fieg and Clarks introduce two models, the Sunderland and the Sandford 2, the latter an update to the original Sandford model. The Sunderland is inspired by a '90s Clarks model with a suede upper and Fieg branding embossed on the tongue and insole. This model will be offered in two different colors, one Cream and the other Khaki Olive. Inspired by Clarks' first-ever London warehouse, the Sandford 2 also features suede uppers, updating the paneling and tooling from the original model. Like the other footwear, this is also offered in Blue and Olive. Finally, the last Clarks piece is the Rushden Boot, returning in a Chocolate colorway and getting a Smoke Grey finish for the first time.
The 8th Street by Ronnie Fieg for Clarks Originals Winter 2024 Collection will release on October 25, 2024, through Kith online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price has yet to be announced.
