Description
Japanese footwear label ASICS has recently seen attention due to high-profile collaborations. Following its recent partnerships with PLEASURES and JJJJound, the Motoi Oyama-led imprint is reuniting with Australian boutique Highs and Lows for a new take on the Gel-1130 model.
Designed by the Australian brand's subsidiary label HAL STUDIOS®, this second pair is a follow-up from the duo's Gel-1130 earlier on in the year with a similar earthy palette. Instead of brown and grey, this latest instalment opts for a predominantly green mesh upper. The ASICS Tiger stripe partake in the same hue — although it features suede fabric, complemented by minimal hits of white and brown leather panels. Altogether, the colour arrangement pulls inspiration from traditional Shinto shrines founded deep within Japanese forests. The ensemble is complete with co-branding details and a GEL-cushioned midsole unit offering all day comfort.
