It’s amazing what the right selection of patterns can do for a sneaker. Asics should know that by now by looking at the super strong reaction garnered by the upcoming Asics Gel Lyte III “Print Pack”. Also featuring the printed look, albeit to a scaled back degree, is this October 2013 version of the Asics Gel Saga II. The sneaker sports a covert camo touch on the insole, a detail that we will also seen on the Asics Gel Lyte III later on this year. Check out the images after the jump and pick up a pre-order on this Asics Gel Saga pair now from Inflammable.

Asics brings back a classic style that we saw just a few years ago but left little evidence behind. Hopefully this run of Onitsuka Tiger Stormer runners will be more expansive and visible, because the precedent set by these first three suede and nylon compositions is quite strong. These give new variety to the classic running sector (which by definition, can’t expand beyond the established past), but will they have the appeal to stand toe to toe with Asics legends like the Gel Lyte III? Let us know after you’ve seen more images below and stick with Sneaker News for updates.

In early January, Ronnie Fieg revealed a pair of Asics Gel Lyte IIIs dubbed the “Super Green“, only this particular design would never hit retail. Instead, the 300-pair run would be donated to the needy in Haiti through the Soles 4 Souls charity – an organization that has donated over 19 million pairs of shoes since 2005. Thankfully, Ronnie’s photographer Pete Forester logged the events of the donation through his camera, giving us a first-hand insight to the great work done by Souls 4 Soles and those who participate in the movement. Check out the gallery of photos below, and see the Souls 4 Soles website to see how you can lend a hand.

While the inline Asics Gel Lyte III stuff has been strong enough as of late in terms of the colors used, the group has been a little tame with respect to the decision to put on any sort of patterns. Finally breaking that spell are a couple of crazy colorways, one that tucks in what appears to be some traditional Chinese style art in and one that goes for a sort of Native American geometric design. Continue reading to see both of these upcoming styles from the Asics Gel Lyte III “Print Pack”, along with another random upcoming inline pair tossed in for good measure, and keep your eyes on Sneaker News to find out when they’ll start to show up at your local sneaker spot.

Ronnie Fieg tends toward cool colors for the basis of his classic running collaborations. Often utilizing green and blue suede and mesh, Fieg finds himself in the middle for this new teal design featuring orange accents and white midsole. This as yet un-nicknamed Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III gets in on the Miami Dolphins look that’s been so popular over the past year-plus. This is a perfect summertime colorway with a breathability boost from micro perforations on the suede segments, so be sure to stick with Sneaker News for updates including the release date, and let us know what you think of RF’s latest GL3s after you see more below.

The Spring 2013 releases of the Asics runners like the Gel Saga II and Gel Lyte III proves rather quickly and easily that the popular of these models is rooted in the design and not the hype. Every release has been impressive without question, and this latest arrival of the Black/Mint with a grey/black speckled midsole proves that the inline designs are likely to disappear quickly from shelves like the limited collabos and the like. These are indeed available at Asics retailers like Packer Shoes right now, so take a look at this sweet gallery and let us know if you’re getting a pair.

There aren’t too many US sneaker shops able to pull down Asics collaborations at the moment. The still-young BAIT has already landed themselves on that list though, releasing the sizable “Rings Pack” last year. In 2013 they’ve got even more on that in the form of this clean Asics Gel Saga II getup. Yes that’s the Asics Gel Saga II-a name that even Asics seems to be straying away from as the box tags as of late skip out on that crucial designation of this silo as a sequel. See more on the BAIT x Asics Gel Saga II, an apparent November 2013 release, after the jump and tell us what you think.

Remember all those Asics Gel Lyte III and Gel Saga pairs that we previewed from the Spring 2013 lineup? The last one of the group is finally here-the Asics Gel Lyte III in this navy based get up. The pair gets some dark orange upgrades underneath the sidestrips and the split-tongue padding set up, a contrastive boost that we recently lamented the lack of. See a full set of angles for this Asics Gel Lyte III retro right after the jump and be advised that they’re already up for grabs at Euro NSW account Titolo.
