Kith has added Fear of God to its growing list of collaborators. The New York City-based lifestyle retailer launched on Friday the Kith x Fear of God collection, comprised of apparel and the Los Angeles-based brand’s Military Sneaker.

 
Jackets and pants from the collection are crafted with Japanese nylon, feature Riri zipper hardware, and are offered in navy. The jacket sports a higher collar, half-zip closure and two zipper vents on the side, and the pants feature inner-ankle zipper cuffs, and elongated drawstrings. The Military Sneaker rounds out the capsule in a navy colorway that nods to Kith’s New York roots.
 
The collaboration follows the opening of Kith’s Los Angeles pop up store at Maxfield. Kith previously set its sights on the west coast with a pop up in Aspen that carried the Kith, Columbia Sportswear collaboration among other partnerships. The Aspen pop up closed at the beginning of 2017 and made way for the Los Angeles pop up that opened on March 4th.

Fear of God also opened a pop up location at Maxfield in November 2016. Creative Director Jerry Lorenzo mirrored the pop up after his grandparents’ living room, and he stocked the temporary store with collaborations from Readymade Japan and Never Gonna Turn Down Again.
 
The Kith x Fear of God capsule will launch at Kith Maxfield at 11am PST, and the Military Sneaker will be available at Kith Manhattan and online.
