Michael Le ASICS has had a relatively slow start to 2021. But following the seasonal droves of GRs and inline runners, the brand is soon to pick up the pace with more interesting collections like this “Back Streets of Japan” pack.
Introduced by way of the GEL-Lyte III, the theme presents itself with a number of subtle colors. The name itself is more a loose connecting thread, an idea that you must interpret for yourself. One option, which takes the lead in its brighter palettes, loosely resembles the nightlife of Japan’s bustling Tokyo streets as hits of pastel pink, purple, blue, and the like dress the upper. Adjacent, the colorway’s alternate is far more subdued, clad near fully in earth tones. A light cream coats the forefoot and heel, while greys and olive greens accent in parallel.
For a closer look at both options, see the photos below. A release is currently set to hit select retailers on March 19th.
In other news, the Air Max 90 Bacon is officially returning on Air Max Day.
