He’s also responsible for several other Asics Gel Lyte III collaborations and other special footwear projects. So you’ve probably asked yourself, “Who is Ronnie Fieg?” In this interview you will find out who Ronnie Fieg is, learn more about his past projects, everything you want to know about The Cove Gel Lyte III, and we even got Ronnie to speak on what’s coming next. We also put Ronnie in the hot seat a couple of times, but you’ll have to listen to the interview to find out how. Click the audio player below and enjoy the interview.

    “Bottom line is that I want folks to get their dollars worth… If someone spends $115 they need to get $115 worth… if not… more than $115 worth! … When I pick this up I know nobody will be dissapointed!” ~ THANK YOU RONNIE… AND THANK YOU G-ROC FOR YOUR RESPONSE TO THOSE COMMENTS!

  16. lilbusta2318 says:

  19. Great interview G-Roc…

  20. P.A.'s Finest says:

    I feel sorry for whoever was tryna get some size 11′s! Cause I kno they went quick.

  21. R E E says:

    TSG … G-ROC … RONNIE FIEG … EXCLUSIVE … (((sirens!)))
    Ronnie Fieg…if you’re reading, player…I ain’t gotta tell you KEEP DOIN YA THING…cuz you’re already got drops for next year.
    G-ROC – keep the exclusive interviews and drops comin’ but I ain’t gotta tell you that either.
    SALUD!

  22. R E E says:

    One more thing…
    ALL SHOE companies need to get involved with more creative individuals that actually CARE and REPRESENT for shoes.
    Why would you want to put person X on to design/market/represent your brand and they have absolutely no passion or connection to it?
    I GET from this interview and even before the interview that Ronnie Fieg CARES and is PASSIONATE about footwear and essentially DESIGN. But, moreso…the combination of business and politics and all out HUSTLE with that artistic eye??
    DOPE.

  23. Sheinzy says:

    Ronnie I know your gonna be checking the comments on here
    .
    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING shoe, next time make more then 252 though…

  24. The Chippewa Boots seem dope. Its great to see a designer taking any footwear brand and type.From the looks of all his collabos quality is the most important. Hopefully I can grab some of his sebago boots this fall .

  25. J-Money says:

    Dam you gotta suck a little to get there.
    You got talent fieg, but i need your job.. Got you COVEred.

    Spread the love Ron, cause it is impossible to get a break into the upper echelon of the shoe game, when you live in Aus-TRAIL-ia..

  26. lilbusta2318 says:

    Man, these eBay re-sellers are straight RAPE. Screw every single one of them. I hate people who bought the shoe that day…and put it up on eBay THAT DAY. A big F U to every single one of those people.

  27. lilbusta2318 says:

    Why are people like Bux on TSG?. He puts the post saying “get at me”, like he is interested in hooking it up and helping me out. I go to find out is is a re-sell, rape-sell, whatever you want to call them coming at me saying “I got an offer of $225 already and I haven’t even got them yet.” Why do people buy shoes and let people who really want them not get them??? GET OFF TSG WACK ASS!!!!

  28. mzadeh says:

    ‘lilbusta2318′ Yo thats like blaming the cig company for killing smokers – maybe you do but what about the fool who lit up. same thing, they would not sell or get bid up if people would not buy – same thing. almost always bid starts lower than retail – people wanting just bid it up! hey – would have loved a lot of my shoes for retail but sh*t – i wanted so paid more

  29. lilbusta2318 says:

    True…but BS nonetheless….

  30. mzadeh says:

    yeah truth be told have been pissed at times to…like the nike am1 pattas which were impossible to get and ended up on ebay from 21 mercer for $600 ++

  31. Soares says:

    @mzadeh $270-$350 BIN PRICE isnt really people “bidding it up” lol.

    I can see how lilbusta is pissed tho…dudes bought pairs, and then put them on ebay WITHOUT EVEN HAVING THE SHOES YET, excepting to get $270+ right off the bat, and in turn taking pairs away from people who actually wanted them (like sheinzy and lilbusta2318)

    But, its just the way of the game. i got 2 pairs right away online, so im good either way LOL!
