Kith and publisher Assouline have officially announced Kith: The Footwear Archive, a 444-page catalogue raisonné celebrating the lifestyle brand’s 15th anniversary. Created to document the footwear category that defined founder Ronnie Fieg‘s creative career, the publication features over 1,800 collaborative models and developmental prototypes across partnerships with adidas, ASICS, Clarks Originals, Moncler, New Balance, Nike, On, Timberland, and more.

Documented by photographer Tyler Mansour, the volume stands as the largest release in Assouline’s Ultimate and Classics Collection to date. The book is divided into two sections: the first presents 700 released pairs through dedicated studio photography, while the second indexes Fieg’s archival collection chronologically by brand to trace the development pipeline from early concepts to final products.

The publication debuts in two formats. The Classic edition will release alongside an Ultimate Edition limited to 300 individually numbered copies, each signed by Ronnie Fieg and enclosed in an all-over Kith monogram-debossed leather clamshell. Ahead of the global launch, Kith will host a public exhibition from September 25 to September 27 at 25 Kent Avenue in Brooklyn, New York, placing all 1,800 archival pairs on public display for the first time while offering early sales of the Classic edition.

The Classic edition of Kith: The Footwear Archive will release on September 30, 2026, via Kith stores, online, and the Kith App, followed by select Assouline boutiques on December 9, 2026. The Ultimate Edition launches on September 30, 2026, exclusively at select Assouline boutiques.
