Marvel | Kith & ASICS for X-Men

Ronnie Fieg worked with ASICS to create seven custom versions of the Remastered GEL-LYTE III, each inspired by X-Men characters, including: Beast, Cyclops, Gambit, Rogue, Storm, and Wolverine in two variations.

The concept for this collection was inspired by trading cards and the excitement of not knowing which cards may be inside the sealed pack. Therefore, every pair is sealed inside a collectible box and will be sold randomly. You will be able to choose your size, but the colorway will be a surprise. Inside the sealed box is a sealed mylar bag which contains the footwear.

Each pair is limited to 2,500 units worldwide. Except for the Wolverine 1975 colorway, which is limited to 1 in every 36 boxes (416 total pairs) as a nod to the rarity of hologram cards from the original Uncanny X-Men trading cards.

Each pair also comes with a commemorative Marvel | Kith & Upper Deck trading card of the character that inspired the colorway. These cards feature the original artwork from the 1992 Uncanny X-Men trading cards but have been updated to feature a foil execution and Kith co-branding. Every box will include one of eight color variants of the card, which range in rarity. The rarity levels include:

Black - 1 of 1

Green - 1 of 10

Gold - 1 of 25

Blue - 1 of 50

Red - 1 of 100

Orange - 1 of 299

Pink - 1 of 749

Silver - 1 of 1,299

The Black, Green, Gold, Blue & Red cards arrive in co-branded PSA graded slabs, which marks the first time in PSA’s history that another brand’s logo will share the grading the tab. The Orange, Pink & Silver cards arrive in one-touch cases.
