KITH founder Ronnie Fieg took to Instagram to reveal the first looks at KITH's New Balance 1700 sneakers, arriving in two colorways: bright Roccoco Red and Marshmallow white.

Fieg's caption? Just a Canadian flag emoji.

KITH's New Balance 1700 pack borrows its bright palette from Canada's national flag, with the rich hues dressing the shoes' premium pigskin leather uppers. However, the flag's famous maple leaf appears absent from the shoe. Darn.

On the insole, New Balance and KITH's logos meet, confirmed the 1700s are yet another team-up from the pair.

KITH's Canadian New Balance 1700s arrive in perfect timing for the launch of Kith's new flagship store in — you guessed it — Toronto, Canada.

As we suspected, the shoes celebrating the new storefront will drop in tandem with Kith Toronto's opening, which is slated to go down on September 22.

If you find yourself in Toronto this week, Kith's New Balance 1700 "Roccoco Red" colorway will be exclusively available at Kith's new Toronto store on Friday, September 22. The Marshmallow iteration, on the other hand, will drop on Kith's website and at all Kith shops, including Kith Toronto.

Set your alarms, folks. Kith Toronto's doors open at 11AM sharp. And judging by the excitement surrounding its journey to the 6 alongside fresh Nbs, we're predicting a lengthy queue for this drop.
