Asics and asics tiger Hanon have decided to make your previewing pleasures a little more challenging with the photoshoot for their collaboration on this GT-II. In keeping it thematic they have given the shoes a hazy glow to accompany the name Nothern Lites .While we are a bit fuzzy on the particulars we can say that the shoes have reflective qualities and a dark upper with a colorful asics logo. It looks to be lined in red with a purple outside while blue laces the medial but at this point thats slightly speculative. Can t wait to get a better look at these.
With an upper made of a combination of mesh and premium nubuck, you would think the materials would stand out. However, it is the bright aqua color that dominates the upper that catches your eye. The qua color is broken up into thre different shades and each is highlighted by the associated materials. A taste of white is thrown in asics nimbus beneath the aqua on the Asics logo as well as the Gel branding on the midsole. The lining is all grey which helps strike a delicate balance between the three shades on qua on the shoe. As they are only a sample, they will not make it to production.
Asics Gel-Lyte Speed Grey/Grey asics shoes in canada Mar 2, 2010 The Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III Super Red were definitely dope. However, I think I am partial to these grey on grey Gel Lytes just released by Asics at Allike. The new colorway uses sports a dual grey upper made of leather. the two toned color gives the shoe some depth and really accents the Asics logo and lace stays. The most distinctive part of the shoe is the red striped midsole and matching laces. The stripes resemble those from the barbershop sign and look great against the grey. As I previously mentioned, they are available now at retailers including Allike.
Spring asics gel kayano 24 2010 Asics Onitsuka Tiger Global Collection The Carrack Feb 11, 2010 Available now over at David Z, the Onitsuka Carrack of Asics Spring 2010 Global Collection is not your typical running shoe. Seen here in a beige, and a royal colorway, the shoe appears as a stylized boat shoe.The full leather upper is trimmed with a slight off-color suede that builds around the ankle and heel. Both colorways sit on a white outsole that is complimented by the white lace panel and white laces. As a final tip of the hat to the boat shoe, the sole is designed like a topographical map. They are now available at the David Z flagship store .
Asics for Fall/Winter Preview Jan 20, 2010 Asics made an appearance at the Bright Tradeshow with their Asics 2010 Spring/Summer Preview and just a few day later they hit us with the Fall/Winter line-up.Looking between the two collections you can definitely tell Asics wanted a brighter and more lively color scheme for the colder months. The 3 Gel Lyte IIIs shown all use a strong base color with accents that pop and stand out from the rest of the shoe. The two other styles shown are on complete opposite sides of the spectrum; one colored in primarily white with blue and red accents, and the other asics 2019 dressed in black with white and hot pink accents. Based on these shots, Asics has a solid line-up for 2010.
Washio Tomoyuki gave his runner a sketched on feel with hand drawn graphics while StudioAnti went with a more reserved design done in greys with yellow accenting via claw marks and branding. This is in complete contrast to what Tomoyuki decided to do with his palette of black, white, red and gold. These are not set to release in the states but certainly a pair or two will pop up. Here is a list of international retailers set to have them.
