The brand name “Kith” actually came from Mike Tyson when he was asking for a kiss.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

You sir deserve to be pinned lmao

[@homeboi4159]

@@NachoAverageFinds I’m going to take this chance to congratulate you guys on the top job you did on this video, mate. Thank you for the great content.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

@@homeboi4159 Appreciate it brother

[@likesneaker3238]

Love Ronnie Fieg and his creativity, especially the Salmon Toes, who would have thought of pink toe cap back in those days!

[@NachoAverageFinds]

The salmon toes are timeless 🤟

[@anthonycalixto1004]

Thank you Nacho for doing a video on Kith. I just visited their LA store and was really impressed, definitely my favorite street wear brand.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Thanks Anthony! Yes they're def an amazing brand. I need to check out one of their stores ASAP. Never been...

[@beachcity562]

Didn't know they had a store

[@miguelgonzalez6386]

Ronnie is a real inspiration to me the fact that he can go out and design amazing sneakers and collaborate with brands is why I want to be a sneaker designer I want to be able to tell a story with shoes and share my passions just like him first pair of Kith shoes were the 990v2 steel blue I worked at New Balance and copped them months before they dropped now I’m at ASICS and I’m hoping that one day I work my way up to open up a store of my own and collaborate just like him thank you Ronnie your an inspiration 🤘

[@NachoAverageFinds]

That’s awesome man! Congrats on copping a pair of those New Balance Steel Blues. I wanted those so bad haha. Best of luck and please send this video to Ronnie once you meet him 😎😎

[@miguelgonzalez6386]

@@NachoAverageFinds for sure man gotta spread the word this is the best KZbin channel for all things sneakers 👟

[@rawsanity27]

The Kith Hawaii Air Force 1’s are so Dope. I really hope I can get a pair one day. They pretty expensive right now.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Yeah I’ve moved all the AF1s they’ve done. I like the Tokyo pair best

[@wilder7198]

Brillant storytelling and such a dope carrier of Ronnie Fieg. I really love the Asics "salmon toe" and the BMW M4 KITH even more. Great video and editing like always 💯🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Appreciate you Max! Homies for life 💪🤟

[@speedysquibbles]

This is what happens to the people who actually do it for the culture. Ronnie is a great inspiration.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Big facts. He’s really done it the right way. Love Kith

my cousin Theophilus London put me on to RF in 2011 and I been wearing the brand ever since

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Luck you! You were able to cop stuff before the hype

[@AkFlav]

@@NachoAverageFinds yea and no. Had no idea it would blow up like that. The Mercer pant, I think changed everything when it dropped tho. Those were good times man. Keep up the great content bra

Great video per usual. I love the Salmon Toe, the tan AF1, and the King LeBron 15s he’s done!

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Thanks Phillip! The Salmon Toes are truly a grail for me

[@joeykelly5642]

Anyone who can make ASICS look good deserves an award - love the “Salmon Toes”. Also a fan of the “Total Eclipse” Gel Lyte IIIs, and the “Volcano” 5s

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Haha I love ASICS but I see why you’re saying that. It’s not easy to colorblock

[@Yerinjibbang]

those are the grails for me

[@Yerinjibbang]

the 997 united arrows is my absolute favorite! all kith nb collabs is fire

[@winnienguyen4420]

Nobody can make Aasics as dope as KITH. An otherwise soccer mom type shoe brand made into something on par with Nike and Adidas is amazing in of itself. Dont even get me into the KITH New Balances. The 1600 Daytona and United Aarows are some of my grails. I've loved your channel for years. Doing an episode on KITH just exalted this channel to a whole other level. I can only hope Off-White is in the near future considering Virgil Abloh's tragic death recently.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Hey Winnie, thanks for the love! Can’t wait for the Daytona inspired 990v5 that will drop soon. Virgil x Off White is in the works already 🤟🤟

[@quinnmadarang1632]

Cool video!

[@shady2493]

Love Kith, the recent Star Wars colab is 🔥

I'm a Jamaican I love his Clarks Collab.

I would love to see a video about the Clarks Wallabee. Lots of cool collabs with Wu Tang, ALD, Kith, Supreme, and bunches more

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Hey Quinn! Saw your DM and will definitely be doing a video on Clark’s at some point

Ronnie Fieg is a creative genius, his label Kith is the quintessential alternative to mainstream fashion brands.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

He really just does what he wants and I love it.

[@lamargettens2370]

Kith ALD and Polo by Ralph Lauren are my favorite brands to buy

[@NachoAverageFinds]

They make the best stuff 🔥

[@winnienguyen4420]

Add Off-White to that and I totally agree.

[@Houseofden]

What do you think about the Reebok sale?

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Honestly haven't formulated a real opinion on it but seems like another corporate company who just cares about the bottom line as opposed to doing anything truly interesting with the brand. We'll have to wait and see

[@smilezdaquiet1970]

No worries. RF did a lot of bangers. Could have been a 4 part video least 😂 Glad to see the Daytonas tho. When they released the vibe was everyone knew it was going to be a classic

@@paoyeezy Apparently they releasing a Daytona 990V5. Can't wait!

C'mon someone in his family had a conx to the Wall St. Journal. They just don't write about a limited edition sneakers which aren't flying off the shelves. No hate but it's obvious he had the right conx to make this happen the way it did.

i think kith is getting a lil bit oversaturated its not as special as it used to be and theres too many collabs to consider it unique
