When it comes to retro running shoes with high quality at a relatively affordable price and readily available quantities, ASICS is currently putting all the other brands to shame. Nike can’t (or doesn’t bother) matching the quality on most of their retros; New Balance matches or even beats ASICS quality, but they always cost quite a bit more, even breaking the $200 barrier on some models; Saucony is close, but not quite there yet when it comes to colorway and model choices. If you needed any more proof that ASICS is killing it right now, just take a look at this new two-shoe “After Hours” pack of the GEL-Lyte III in premium nubuck leather sporting a duo of extremely clean colorways and interesting color blocks—each of which looks good enough to be a premium collab sneaker. Whether you opt for green or purple, you can’t go wrong this fall. Find both pairs arriving now at select ASICS Tiger retailers like Rock City Kicks.
