The Sneaker Freaker x Asics Gel Lyte III “Alvin Purple” came around right before a big boom in Asics interest over here in the US that was anchored on Ronnie Fieg’s collab treatments. The distribution of this 2010 release was pretty limited; no US shops were named in the official retailer list and, as a result, they’re nearly impossible to track down on the secondary market. Reminding us of that hard hitting collab is Packer Shoes, who randomly threw up this image of the Sneaker Freaker cover story that introduced them. Do they have something in store? Tell us in the comments if you’ve got a pair of Alvin Purples in your collection and stay tuned should anything become of this.
