This New ASICS Gel Lyte III Pays Homage To Japanese Garments

Remember that ASICS Gel Lyte III that paid homage to both Japanese kimonos and Okayama denim? The ambitious pair is now available at even more retailers after a limited run grabbed some retro running fans’ collective attentions. The Gel Lyte III has proven to be the perfect model to experiment with in terms of premium materials and interesting concepts in the past, and here the combination of selvedge denim and a floral print on the neoprene split-tongue pays homage to two very different eras in Japanese history. Splashes of two different shades of red and hints of yellow add some vibrance to the unique offering. Available now at select ASICS retailers such as Rock City Kicks.
