KITH works in collaboration with both Clarks and adidas to produce a special iteration of the BW Army sneaker model. The shoe was originally unveiled in the 70s and it boasts a slim structure and rests on top of a gum sole unit. It was then remixed in the 90s and this time around, the shoes are made to order.
These will be exclusively available to Kith's Vitality Loyalty Members, which is a points-based program through KITH Loyalty that returns rewards to customers. The shoes are also detailed with a colorway dubbed Vitality green, which comes along with a collection of matching cozy sweat apparel done in the same palette -- the entire range is available to shop as of today.
