In a nutshell
The flagship is an homage to Brooklyn, with stainless steel, oak and brick. The monolithic kiln-like brick centrepiece dominates the apparel+sneakers+treats destination.
In their words
"This impressive space maintains KITH's penchant for premium product. A curated selection of multi-brand apparel and footwear resides next to exclusive KITH apparel and accessories"
Visit Field notes
Heralded as a 'love letter to Brooklyn', this is a personal project for Ronnie Fieg, Kith's founder. The 3000 square foot polished-floor, brick and light space features a cereal bar. The range has been extended from the Manhattan stores to include additional products from Off White, Norse Project, Helmut Lang and Nike. A destination if you're a Kith fan, and a must-visit-if-in-the-neighbourhood for everyone else.
