MensNeedsBlog: Ronnie Fieg

Laces Out! came back bigger and better for the second installment, occupying the two main rooms of Liverpool's best venue.

2014 really has been the year of the collaboration, with more and more retailers and designers getting involved with some of the biggest names in the sneaker world, such as Nike, ASICS, Saucony and adidas. Here we have our 7 best.

It's been a long line of teasers since we first saw Ronnie rocking both of these models, but we now finally have more images and that all important release information.

It's always nice when you see something a little bit different coming out of the Ronnie Fieg/KITH office. Here we have a New Balance 530 which doesn't seem to have a huge RF styling attached to it.

With COOGI, if you know, then you know. Made popular through artists like Puff Daddy and Notorious B.I.G the brand is set to make a 2014 return with the help of Ronnie Fieg and KITH NYC, and their first outing will be on this Etonic kick.

Thinking back two or three years ago, Sneaker events were almost unheard of, especially in the UK. With the growth of the Sneaker Community in the past two years, events such as Laces Out!, 6ACRE and Crepe City have burst on to the scene, giving collectors and enthusiasts a place to meet up, buy, sell, trade and have a good time with like minded people.

It's very nice to see Ronnie being able to take a step away from ASICS and wandering straight into the design room of a legendary sports wear brand - adidas. This is a big step for the designer, and one which I am far too happy about.

Here at Men's Needs we've tried to stay away from the Ronnie Fieg hype this time, simply because we're sick of how he plays the hype-game. But we've finally got a release date, so I decided that's worthy of a post.

So today we have the nominations for the first of our Men's Needs' Kicks of 2013 awards, and this one (of course) is the biggest, Best Overall Kick of 2013. We hope we've fitted the 9 best shoes of 2013 into this list, so here they are.

The Asics Gel Lyte V is having a huge 2013, mainly thanks to Mr Fieg and his Volcano release. But today we have a new in-house colour-way for your eyes.

So, this week has been very busy, with teasers and releases and new packs including brands from New Balance to Asics to Nike to Norse Projects. So it's time for the first of our 'Week in Recap' posts. Hit the jump to find out more.

I really do HATE teasers, but I have never known another man who loves them as much Mr Ronnie Fieg. Yesterday he released yet another teaser, and yes you guessed it, another upcoming collaboration with Asics.

There has been so much talk and anticipation surrounding the release of the latest Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III, this being the 'Flamingo'. Finally we can put a date to the shoe1

The Puma Disc Blaze is a much loved shoe in the world of the sneaker-head, with massive releases such as the Ronnie Fieg created 'Coves'. This pack is set to be just as big with the incorporation of Cork in the design.

As far as this colour-way goes, be sure to get over and thank Ronnie Fieg. He himself couldn't get a pair when they originally released in Women's sizes. He personally got in touch with Asics and got them to create this colour-way in men's sizes.

You might remember seeing these kicks earlier in the year (have a look at our previous post from back in JANUARY) and wondered exactly when they were going to drop. We still don't know that. But at least we've got some new images, courtesy of Sneaker Freaker (as you can tell!).

If you're anything like me Ronnie Fieg's Instagram will have been driving you mad with teaser image after teaser image after teaser hash-tag. But we've finally got information and more pictures of the well hyped ECP (East Coast Project) Pack.

The ASICS Gel Lyte III is fast becoming a staple for any sneaker-head out there, the split-tongued runner is gaining speed fast, and these Autumn 2013 releases show no sign of the in-house designs slowing.

Ronnie Fieg x ASICS Gel Lyte III always gets the internet going crazy, but the build up to this kick is making us go extra wild, teaser after teaser just got us even more hyped, and now the preview is finally here.

Ronnie Fieg has teamed up with Asics to create yet another Gel Lyte III collaboration, and there's a very nice story behind this one.
