'thoughts become things' (Kai Greene )

International gym apparel label, Ryderwear, and bodybuilding sensation, Kai Greene, have collaborated to create their limited-edition - Kia Greene Signature Series lifting shoe.

With limited pairs available, the uni-sex, premium suede leather shoe is embossed with Kai Greene's imprint and signature so passionate gym-goers can leave his mark everywhere they go.

bodybuilder, Kia Greene transformed his life and body to fulfill his true destiny and inspire millions around the globe. He has flourished into more than an icon in the bodybuilding industry- he's an artist and budding actor with a human story.

"A lot of detail has been put in producing this quality shoe. When I see the shoe though, I see a monument to a larger idea. When I look at this shoe I feel like the idea that thoughts become things is capsulized in that." says Greene

CEO of Ryderwear, David Lukic, says, "We're thrilled to be collaborating with Kai Greene on his Ryderwear Signature Series shoe as he's one of my biggest inspirations. This shoe signifies the raw essence of Kai and his deep philosophical perspective on life. When customers wear the Kai Greene Signature Series shoe, we hope they feel inspired to achieve their goals and adopt a mind over matter mentality, just like Kai," says David Lukic.

The Kai Greene Signature Series shoe is designed for weightlifting and possesses exceptional attention to detail in its features. The shoe is available in three colors - red, black and charcoal.

David Lukic says, "We've used premium suede leather because it's Kai's preferred fabric to train in. The flat sole and latex heel cushioning allows you to keep as close to the ground as possible, great for major lifts such as squats and deadlifts. You'll also discover Kai's famous words, 'thoughts become things' embossed inside the plush padded tongue, all adding to the uniqueness of the shoe. The extra high-top shoe features a patent leather heel, metal tip laces, and triangular custom metal eyelets - the triangle symbolizes 'The Predator,' one of Kai's well-known stage names," says David Lukic
