Kith founder and creative director Ronnie Fieg announced plans to open boutiques in San Francisco and Washington, D.C. in 2027, speaking Tuesday at the WWD Apparel and Retail CEO Summit at Casa Cipriani in Manhattan. The expansion follows the recent opening of Kith's second Canadian flagship in Vancouver.
Fieg said he is "excited about that [and is currently] wrapping up design" for both sites but declined to reveal specific opening dates. He plans to debut two Ronnie's restaurant locations in each city as well.
Fieg's restaurant venture began with Ronnie's in London last December, positioned adjacent to the Kith flagship on Regent Street. Ronnie's Pronto, a casual sandwich shop, opened earlier this year next to the Kith flagship at 8500 Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood. Last month, Fieg expanded the Pronto concept with a grab-and-go food truck permanently stationed outside the Kith Manhattan flagship at 337 Lafayette Street in SoHo.
In addition to the new stores and restaurants, Fieg is rebuilding the brand's Miami Beach location.
