Revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, the collection pays homage to the iconic X-Men characters with a fusion of style and nostalgia.
The X-Men-inspired Gel Lyte III’s showcases the individuality of characters like Beast, Cyclops, Gambit, Rogue, Storm, and Wolverine across seven striking colourways. Each sneaker boasts unique fabrications and colour schemes that perfectly capture the essence of mutant heroes.
Adding that extra element of surprise, the collaborative sneakers arrive in blind packaging, replicating the excitement of opening a pack of trading cards. Buyers will uncover the character-specific design only upon unboxing, heightening the anticipation and collectibility.
To further delight fans, KITH has recreated classic Marvel trading cards from the 1992 Uncanny X-Men Series 1. These exclusive cards feature Marvel and KITH logos, accompanied by dual KITH and PSA co-branding. Card collectors and sneaker enthusiasts alike will be thrilled by this fusion of memorabilia and footwear.
