Frequent collaborators Ronnie Fieg and Adidas have brought in football legend Lionel Messi for a three-way collection dropping soon.
The latest Kith and Messi for Adidas Football range celebrates the 20th anniversary of Leo’s debut at the 2006 FIFA World Cup alongside the boutique’s 15th anniversary. Featured in this collection are six footwear styles, ranging from on-pitch to off-pitch. The performance-focused models include the COPA Mundial 17 Ultra Boost, the F50 Megaride, and the F50 Walkable Cleat, with the latter pair inspired by the first Adidas cleat Messi wore during the ‘06 World Cup. The lifestyle portion includes two iterations of the Handball Spezial and a lone Superstar.
Also included in this collection are apparel pieces, including an updated version of Messi’s ‘06 Argentina jersey, as well as printed long-sleeve goalkeeper jerseys and gloves, tracksuits, nylon warm-up pullovers, and socks.
Readers will be able to cop the Kith and Messi for Adidas Football collection starting on Friday, May 29, at Kith.com and at all Kith stores.
