K-Swiss makes history this weekend as it will be launching a sneaker from its back catalog, which spans nearly 50 years, for the first time ever.

The Si-18 International O.G. was a game-changing tennis sneaker when it debuted back in 1989. Complete with a crisp white upper and superior technology that included an ultra cushioned outsole and a unique lacing system, the tennis sneaker was a breakthrough in design for K-Swiss.

The vintage tennis sneaker returns with the exact technical specifications and craftsmanship that made the model a hit on and off the court. From its leather upper to the blue and red accents and D-R-Cinch lacing system, the Si-18 International comes back in true original form.

Look out for the sneakers to launch tomorrow in limited quantities on Kswiss.com and in-store through select retailers, including Atmos, Ubiq, and Sneakersnstuff. Check out the on-foot shots, and take a look at the exclusive illustrations of the retro from K-Swiss Lead Designer Jon Tang.
