Kith x Backbone limited-edition smartphone controller launch now live!

December 5, 2025 Posted by Bill Loguidice News No Comments

With limited availability, the Kith x Backbone Pro controller for smartphones just went live today, Friday, December 5, at 11am EST, exclusively on Kith.com.

Here’s some promotional info on the collaboration:

Kith’s fifth annual Kithmas collection just debuted, and this year’s standout is built for gamers. Kith has teamed up with Backbone—the leader in next-gen mobile gaming—to launch a limited-edition Backbone Pro controller, available exclusively on Kith.com.

This special-edition controller features a frost-clear, transparent chassis, premium Kithmas packaging, and Backbone’s signature high-performance engineering. Players can snap in their smartphone for handheld play or switch to wireless mode to game on virtually any screen—PCs, tablets, laptops, and TVs—making it one of the most versatile (and giftable) gaming devices of the season.

The collaboration also marks a cultural moment: Backbone and Kith are redefining what gaming looks like today. By pairing Backbone’s mission to make gaming accessible to everyone with Kith’s ability to elevate the familiar through design and taste, the drop brings gaming squarely into the worlds of fashion, music, sport, and film. It’s made for everyone—from late-night ranked grinders to busy parents squeezing in a match to friends playing together across cities.
