Tomorrow, Ronnie Fieg and the KITH crew will set up shop in Miami for the launch of the East Coast Project, and corresponding colorways of the popular ASICS Gel Lyte III will begin to release. While his resume sees silos and labels outside of the split-tongue favorite, the Gel Lyte III has become synonymous with his styling and collaborative work. In celebration of the East Coast Project launch, we take a look back at Ronnie’s best GLIII designs.

252 Pack

Year: 2007

Dedicated to giving the consumer their money’s worth, Ronnie’s run began with his longtime tenure at David Z. The makeup on the far left led the way, with 252 pairs of the other two colorways releasing at a party with Complex and online at David Z.
