Even before being named Creative Director of the New York Knicks in 2022, Ronnie Fieg has used his Kith label to celebrate the team he has been a fan of since childhood. The brand is only days away from hosting its third annual Kith Day at Madison Square Garden, and in the lead-up to this event, Fieg teased the world with the first image of the upcoming New Balance 991v2 Made in UK. Alongside this pair, another New Balance collab has appeared, this time on the skate-ready New Balance Numeric 480.
Like the counterpart in this new homage to the Knicks and MSG, the two 480s come in the colors of NY’s basketball team. One pair comes with brown suede landing along the mudguard and heel overlay, while leather appears on the mudguard of the second pair. The pair with tan on the mudguard comes with a mesh base in a tonal cream finish, the other color features suede. Branding for New Balance is found on the midfoot, with the N logo on one pair with debossed Kith logos and the other featuring an orange finish. More Kith branding appears on the tongue tag on both pairs. Finishing the design is a tonal 480 midsole paired with a rubber outsole that hosts hits of blue or orange, depending on the pair.
The Kith x New Balance Numeric 480 MSG Pack will release via early access for select members of Kith’s loyal program today, November 1, 2024. A wider release will likely occur next week, on November 4, 2024. Coming in men's sizing, retail is set at $120.
