The ASICS GEL-Kinsei OG is now back in the spotlight thanks to the re-release of the original silver/blue model that dropped over a week ago, and the Japanese-based brand is looking to continue the momentum of its relaunch with the revival of this classic silver and red colorway. Originally introduced back in 2006, the low-profile runner draws inspiration from Samurai armor, mimicking a design concept that is intended to protect the body while also allowing it to move freely. Mixing layers of mesh and silver synthetic panelling, this running model is accented with hints of red arriving on its signature heel GEL cushioning blocks in addition to its mid-foot and outsole. This GEL-Kinsei is sure to provide a sense of nostalgia to ASICS enthusiasts in addition to showcasing an original design that spawned the latest generation of GEL-infused models to newfound sneaker fans. Be on the lookout for these to drop at select ASICS retailers on September 14th for $190 USD.
