Lionel Messi has spent a good amount of time in Miami since his move to the MLS, so we’re guessing the world’s biggest soccer star has stopped by the South Beach Kith location once or twice to check out the gear or cop an ice cream. No matter his Kith loyalty status, Messi is getting down with Ronnie and the brand for his latest adidas collab ahead of the World Cup.
Previewed in the same very chill on-foot, one-leg crossed, rear side angle that we saw the Kith x New Balance 990v3 yesterday, the Kith x Lionel Messi x adidas Megaride F50 is the latest soccer-influenced lifestyle sneaker from adidas, adding yet another footy focus while we wait for the World Cup to come Stateside this summer.

So far, we’ve only seen the one quick image of the pair on Ronnie’s updates IG page, but like most Kith collabs, we expect the timeline to be quick, so don’t be surprised if we dig up more info shortly.
