Bark and Redwood stay exclusive to that store while Leaf and Sakura go online globally Monday

Kith and New Balance are collaborating once again. The 2011 marks Kith’s 15th anniversary and the brand’s founding year, wrapped in a backstory about a seed growing into a tree. Corny premise aside, the price tag lands right in line with a standard premium New Balance collab, which is the kind of entry point that makes the exclusivity angle worth paying attention to.

New Balance X Kith 2011

The 2011 is Fieg’s first ground-up sneaker design for New Balance, built with designer Sam Pearce using a multi-panel upper and Abzorb cushioning pulled from the original New Balance 2002. It comes in four colorways tied to that growth story: Bark, Redwood, Leaf, and Sakura.

All four release today at Kith West Hollywood on Sunset Boulevard, inside a new in-store concept called New Balance at Kith. That part matters for resellers: Bark and Redwood are confirmed exclusive to that single location and will not be sold online or at any other Kith store, based on current release plans. Leaf and Sakura get the wider rollout on June 29, available at US Kith stores, Kith Toronto, and online globally.

Sneakers retail at $200 across all four colorways. The apparel side ranges from $145 to $245 for jackets, shorts, and other pieces with co-branded artwork, while headwear runs around $60 and socks land at $40.

Why Resellers are Excited

This is not the first collaboration between Kith and New Balance. In 2022, the brands released a series of shoes celebrating the iconic 990 silhouette. These were popular with collectors at the time and today, and they continue to resell for a profit four years later.

The geographic exclusivity is the real story. Limiting Bark and Redwood to one store creates the kind of scarcity that drives secondary market premiums, especially given Kith’s track record of selling out collaborative New Balance drops fast. If you’re in the LA area today, grabbing multiple pairs at West Hollywood and relisting on StockX is the straightforward play at this $200 retail price point.

For resellers outside Los Angeles, watch how Bark and Redwood list on StockX and eBay between today’s in-store debut and Monday’s global launch. If those two exclusive colorways move for real money over the next few days, that’s a strong signal Leaf and Sakura are worth buying fast online on the 29th.
