KITH Revives Its Iteration of Birkenstock's London Braided
KITH is joining forces with Birkenstock once again. With a bevy of Birkenstock models under their belt – shoes, sandals and clogs alike – KITH has seemingly locked down the footwear imprint's formula. This time around, the duo is once again delivering one of its most coveted and classic collaborations: the KITH x Birkenstock London Braided.Debuted last November, the KITH x Birkenstock offering remains true to form, taking the same close-toed clog silhouette it appeared in last fall. For the first release, KITH and Birkenstock dropped the clogs in three earthy colorways which sold out rapidly; while the teaser focuses on the crafting of a cream-colored pair, the new Braided Londons are set to surface in a handful of "all-new pastel hues" per the description. KITH cursive lettering is embossed on the strap, though otherwise, branding remains minimal – aside from the co-branded box.In tandem with the release announcement, KITH also unveiled a closer look at the physical process of building a KITH x Birkenstock London Braided, giving viewers an immersive look at the hand-braiding, outsole layering and intricate stitching that goes into perfecting the London Braided silhouette.Watch the full video of the making of a pair of KITH x Birkenstock London Braided joints above, and cop a pair for yourself when they drop on Friday, July 12 at 11 a.m. EST at KITH's online store.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
