When Ronnie Fieg first opened the doors to Kith in 2011, he wasn’t just launching a brand—he was setting the foundation for a lifestyle. Now, over a decade later, that vision reaches an ambitious new pinnacle with Kith Ivy, a private members’ club that transcends the conventional, blending sport, wellness, culture, and fashion into a singular sanctuary of modern living.
Located at 120 Leroy Street in Manhattan’s West Village, Kith Ivy isn’t just a space—it’s a curated world. A hidden retreat built not only for competition, but for connection. It asks a daring question: What if the future of members’ clubs isn’t about exclusivity alone—but about experience, play, and purpose?
Padel as the Spark
At the center of Kith Ivy’s ethos is padel—a sport gaining quiet momentum in the States, but already established as a global obsession among tastemakers and athletes. For Fieg, what began as a personal fascination with the game soon turned into a blueprint for something larger.
This realization gave rise to Kith Ivy—a club where padel isn’t just played, it’s elevated. Built in collaboration with Wilson, the indoor and rooftop courts are a study in both design and function. A Kith x Wilson capsule collection will further cement the brand’s commitment to the sport, merging performance and streetwear into something seamless.
A World of Cultural Partnerships
But Kith Ivy is far more than its courts. It is a layered, sensorial experience shaped by the icons Fieg has long admired—each partner handpicked to contribute to the fabric of the club.
Giorgio Armani was tapped to create a world-class spa, channeling the designer’s signature Italian restraint and elegance. The result is a tranquil sanctuary of travertine stone and ambient light, complete with a hammam, sauna, cold plunge pools, and massage rooms—all curated to balance ambition with recovery.
Then comes Erewhon, the cult-favorite California wellness brand, making its first East Coast appearance within the club. Members will have access to the full menu of juices, tonics, and health-forward fare, marking a bold shift in how New Yorkers nourish themselves in luxury spaces.
And for dining? Fieg chose Café Mogador—a New York institution renowned for its soulful, globally-inspired cuisine. The restaurant will serve as the club’s social heart, offering a warm, grounded contrast to the precision of the courts and spa.
Redefining Membership
While New York has no shortage of private clubs, few, if any, match Kith Ivy’s synthesis of luxury, lifestyle, and cultural relevance. This is not a throwback to the old guard. It is not modeled on colonial nostalgia or stiff exclusivity. Instead, it’s a progressive redefinition of membership, rooted in shared values: wellness, competition, style, and soulful connection.
Access, of course, is tightly controlled. The initiation fee is $36,000, with an annual membership fee of $7,000. This pricing sets the tone—not just of exclusivity, but of investment in a lifestyle that defies categories.
More Than a Club—A Movement
Kith Ivy arrives at a moment when global luxury is shifting—from possession to experience, from opulence to intentional design, from exclusivity to community. It’s no longer just about having access—but about belonging to something that moves with the culture.
For Fieg and his collaborators, Kith Ivy isn’t simply a place to play—it’s a place to be.
As padel courts light up beneath the skyline and Erewhon juices circulate beside Armani spa treatments, a new kind of members’ club takes root—not in tradition, but in transformation.
Kith Ivy is not just the future of the members’ club. It’s the future of lifestyle itself.
