The History of Kith
Vložit

- Kith was founded by Ronnie Fieg back in 2011, and over the past decade it has grown to become one of the largest brands and retail stores in the world. In this episode of Threaducation we’ll talk about how Ronnie started off working in the backroom of a shoe store and eventually became one of the biggest names in the sneaker industry and the fashion industry. We’ll be tracking it all the way from his first collection to his first fashion show at New York Fashion Week, and we’ll also touch on many of his collabs including ones with Nike, Adidas, Asics, Versace, as well as so much more. This is the history of Kith.

Another classic, I swear Threaducation is so underrated.
thank you goat
Facts!
On God
❤️
I agree! I jus watched one of his videos about Balenciaga and it was beautifully done. Can’t wait to hear more about fashion history and future.
Do RHUDE next. Btw you’re easily one of my favorite channels on CZcams.
thank you bro - and yes I get a lot of requests for Rhude thats coming soon
You know you’re successful when the work you do transcends your name. There’s so much stuff I did bc of Ronnie and I didn’t even know who he was until like four years ago
trend setter for real
Perfect timing, reminder not to stop.
🙏💛
Whoever tf is running Adidas is a fucking genius. They are ahead of the game on everything they’re always creating trends and doing everything first. Nike is just as innovative but Someone very high up in adidas has a taste for style that is unmatched by anyone else in the industry.
I remember Ronnie when he first opened up the shoe section in the back of Atrium. Had all the heat. One of the first guys to carry all the Red Wings and other fly work boots. Then they expanded to include clothes, coffee table books, fragrances, etc. That's when Kith really popped off. The store he has now is dope but the heat and buzz Ronnie had when he was in the back of Atrium will never be duplicated. It became a meeting place for all the tastemakers. Saturdays at KITH were amazing. WATTBA.
Only misstep Ronnie has made, IMO, is when he bought Atrium, got rid of the front where all the clothes were, and made it into an ice cream and cereal store. I never understood how he thought that was a good idea.
Besides that he's been money.
Maybe cereal stores were trendy at the time. It’s still operated like that right? I know the kith store in Miami sells I cream/cereal.
Kith hasnt been the same, but its understandable. It grows and changes its taste like the founder.
I can totally agree I used to walk in Atrium passed all the gear and head straight to all the hot footwear lol a lot of people don’t know about his journey he came a long way lol
Kith is a beautiful legacy to have…… not stuck in the box…. It reaches to all crowds…. Motivational 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Do the asap nast story next
Dope work mane. I found David Zs in the 90’s and would drive up from DC to buy. They always had fresh and unique styles, never thought there was a movement afoot but 30 years later I couldn’t be happier.
This video helped me get ready for my Kith Interview, thanks Threaducation for the refresher on Kith 🤞🏻🤞🏻
good luck!
Being a fan of KITH since forever I loved this video
Always hyped when i see you uploaded something new bro
You’re the best Thread keep it up. These videos are educational, entertaining, and motivational all in one
thank you bro hearing stuff like that keeps me going 🤝
You never seize to amaze me ! Kith defo one of my favourites
This is gonna be a good one. Keep em coming!
working on some now stay tuned
Thank you man again and again, so inspiring! Working on design stuff with this in my headphones just push me to do better and better stuff 😉✌️
awesome to hear - keep grinding!
Haven’t even finished it yet and I already know it’s gonna be a good video. Threaducation is my new favorite fashion channel and provides a much more unique take and coverage then other fashion channels. Just a quick question when’s the next “style evolution of ___” video and who will it be of?
thank thank you. got one more video coming before the next style video. wont say who but he was on Donda 😉
@@Threaducation oh i see you. I look forward to seeing your style evolution of the globgloglab
@@girlscoutdisguisedskinwalk9551 lmao same he is my icon
Thanks for this!!! KITH is across the street from my home. I often see massive lines to get into the store but, old person that I am, I had no clue what was going on there and no interest in finding out (the cereal bar was very confusing). Now I think I'll run across the street and check out this apparently iconic store! Side note, Kith is next door to a store called Vinnie's that sells similar items and (to my untrained eye) seems just as succesful. I haven't gone to that store either, I'll check it out too!
CANT FORGET ABOUT VINNES BROOKLYN STYLE
My favorite channel right now
Couldn’t be more true for me as well
Sadelle is amazing in Paris. Kith is an experience and love that not a lot of people know about it. At least here in Holland. Love the videos ✌️

@@Threaducation 🙏💛
Do RHUDE next ! Great channel yuuheard
ur channel motivates me allot remember the name one day u will make a video on 'zammarot' a brand i recently started
You gotta do Aime Leon Dore! Saw Teddy Santis at the end there lol
Can we get Salehe Bembury next, his rise is meteoric and I don’t see him slowing down
I met ronnie at atruim in 2012, its been crazy watching his journey!
He had everyone in ny wearing 5 panels joggers and asics😂😂
wow thats right near the beginning, crazy to look back on
@@Threaducation forreal it always blew my mind how he only had the back and i went back one day and he had the whole store!
i happened to be in waikiki 2 weeks ago for the AF1 drop.. it was a shock drop that people waited in line for 24hours for. i thought i had a chance but the line was down the street... just my 2 cents lol
Also I didn’t know how I didn’t already subscribe to you. Also can you do a vid on vetements and vivienne Westwood?
Tnx!
Wow. I such a fan.
Great video but a few things are off. The First Kith store open in the back of the Atrium store (they had their own entrance) in the Village. He then open Kith women's across the street. It was a very small location but he wanted to give woman an exclusive location. Atrium would than open in Brooklyn. Kith became a part of the store. Inevitably Atrium would go out of business. So Kith ended up taking over the entire space.
skateboard p!! or even heidi’s time @ ysl
or both?
@@Threaducation my man, this is why you’re the goat😎
Loved this. Do you have a link to the video of Ronnie, Victor Cruz and Arsham at the dinner table raising a glass? Been looking for it for inspo!
Found it. It’s the Mr. Porter vid for anyone else 👌
Obviously Sam knew that Atrium was gonna be the company that benefited had Ronnie came to work under that banner! Fieg is actually a great designer and I really dig his shoe collabs.
I say it once and I’ll say it again it’s a threaducation classic
what I aim for every time 💯
any merch soon ? 👀
y'all want it? 👀
@@Threaducation HELL YES
@@Threaducation Yellow Hoodie would go crazy!
He dont miss !
Ok first off another banger by threaducation of course. Second, I haven't gone to a kith store but I would love to go visit one now... I always wondered why juice wrld was selling ice cream in his interview at kith but now I know :0
yes definitely try to get to one if possible!
didn't know David Blaine founded kith
his greatest trick yet
I saw the Kith BMW over near St. John's University... taking the F train to Kith tomorrow lol
Kinda crazy that David Z didn’t just let Ronnie open Kith inside his store like the one guy did. Not the right fit. Ronnie is a legend and king of the industry when it comes to collabs done right. From the very beginning he made it happen. Respect ✊
Honey come quick, threaducation dropped a new video
U don’t miss bro 💯 top 5 channels on CZcams don’t ever let up💪🏾
🤝
Do STÜSSY and supreme & Bobby from the hundreds

My hype beast history teacher

A list of video topics I think would be dope to cover
History of stussy, the hundreds, huf, bbc & ice cream, crooks and castles, 10 deep, obey, undefeated, black scale, diamond supply co, Jeff staple and staple design/reed space, and the site karmaloop.
Please and thank you.
