Assouline’s coffee-table book *KITH: The Footwear Archive*, published in honor of KITH’s 15th anniversary, documents the brand’s evolution through the category that initially defined it: the sneaker. This 444-page book compiles more than 1,800 collaborative shoe models from the past fifteen years, preserved in founder Ronnie Fieg’s archive.

This comprehensive volume marks the first time Fieg’s impressive collection of unreleased and development prototypes has been revealed to the public, alongside the released models and the “friends and family” editions that have defined his career. It features projects with partners such as Adidas, Asics, Clarks Originals, Moncler, New Balance, Nike, On, Timberland, and more, and is the largest book in Assouline’s Classics Collection to date. The entire collection was photographed by Tyler Mansour, a photographer who has collaborated with KITH for many years, ensuring that all fifteen years are presented through a consistent visual lens.

„The true DNA of the brand and my creative work began with shoes. This book is proof that we’ve built something that didn’t exist before.” — Ronnie Fieg, founder and creative director of KITH.

The book is divided into two parts: the first part showcases 700 released models through high-quality photography, while the second part delves deeper into the archive—which is organized chronologically by brand—and traces the complete journey from the initial concept to the final product. Together, the two parts reveal the continuity of Fieg’s unique vision across every category, collaboration, and period.

Thanks to unprecedented access to the brand’s archive, the coffee-table book *KITH: The Footwear Archive‘ is both a comprehensive account of Kith’s first fifteen years and an indispensable reference guide for understanding the brand’s design philosophy and its influence on the broader industry. Fieg says, ’I think about the book twenty years from now, the book thirty years from now. Everything I’m working on right now is part of that story.“
