The Ronnie Fieg x PUMA “Tokyo Sakura Collection” consists of the classic PUMA R698 and the RF698 Mid models.
The R698 represents the beginning of the seasonal transition, that is composed of microperforated pigskin suede, and utilizes burgundy colorblocking amidst the toe. The rest of the upper features a subtle Light Pink base with White overlay panels. The lateral formstripe is scythed to give a petal-effect. The Trinomic midsole unit includes a gradient to fit the entire color scheme. A tonal leather liner is the final detail on this model.
Representing the darker ending is the RF698 Mid silhouette that features an upper that is entirely microperforated, with nubuck used for the toe and pigskin for the remainder. A Burgundy body is offset by a Dark Navy forefoot, which plays into the gradient dual-speckle Trinomic midsole. The inner-sock is fastened from neoprene, and includes both tongue and heel pulls for accessibility. The medial formstripe is asymmetrical, and made from Navy 3M.
Both models in the pack also feature tonal 3M KITH Ronnie Fieg tongue labels, co-branded quilted insoles, three sets of lace options, and custom packaging.
Look for the Ronnie Fieg x Puma “Tokyo Sakura Collection” to release this Saturday, March 28th, at 11AM EST at KITH Manhattan 644 Broadway, KITH Brooklyn 233 Flatbush Ave, and online at KithNYC.com.
