Ronnie Fieg Collabs - Tracking order link http://shop.kithnyc.com/pages/tracking

Just ordered a pair of the Hudson pants. I wear a M in Nike Tech Fleece so I went ahead and ordered a M in those too.
 
You guys are right, would be poor taste.

So I wonder if it's possible the day before, or day after?
 
Doubt anything gets kithstriked before Ronnie drops full shots of the shoe. The hype train has a long way to go before anything gets released IMO.
 
this is not meant to be any type of fact, just a contribution to the discussion about the upcoming adidas.
i think he could definitely kithstrike them on 9/11 and say that ALL the proceeds from those sales are donated. Since only a limited amount are actually released on a kithstrike, the rest saved for a normal release, the amount of sales could possibly equal to the $15K or whatever you guys said he previously announced.

as grimy as he is, he is pretty masterful at using marketing to his advantage. that supergreen donation in haiti was dumb because he couldve easily supplied more quantities of footwear to the people in need there had he just donated the proceeds from retail sale, but instead he made it a pr spectacle. most people didn't see the big picture and just said at least he's doing something.
he banks off so much other releases that it would be much more lauded if he donated the whole thing, not just $15K.
 
 
 
love em. 
 

They definitely look better with the blue "hidden". Although I love my pair and think it's a great shoe, I think it could of done without the blue Asics logo on the medial.
Same reason why i passed. The best shots of this shoe is with the blue hidden. I didn't even realized the blue from all of ronnie's posts on his ig/twitter till the final email from kith the night before!
 
I don't think it would be too bad to do a quick strike...it would only be a mere 10 minute event. And rf releasing a shoe might be big news to some of us but in the grand scheme of things no one else really gives a damn. Everything is just magnified on nt...sneaker wise
 
I get and understand how "grimey" it might be to release a sneeaker on 9/11...but the thing is, it's not the Rose Golds, Sage's or Filling Pieces, it's a sneaker that has been made and dedicated to 9/11, and is in memory of that date, which is why it DOES make sense. It's a sneaker that has a special meaning behind it, so releasing it on any other date rather than the one that it's intended to signify defeats the purpose. Granted, it's great that he's donating money (15k), but wouldn't it make more sense to release the memorial sneaker and the proceeds on 9/11, and not on 9/12 or 9/13? Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know.

Which is why I feel like 9/13 is the safe date. Kithstrike seems to be possible on 9/11 with monies going directly to the donation funds
 
Day 9 and still no replies to emails or shipping confirmation, Kith are literally the worst online retailer I have EVER encountered.
