As Derek Curry’s Sneaker Politics empire is slowly building throughout the South, the respected retail imprint announces another big move in 2025 — an exclusive release with ASICS and the brand’s most in-demand silhouette coinciding with the upcoming SXSW event in Austin, TX.
Since its resurgence during the lockdown era, the ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 has become a primary tool to build upon the Japanese brand’s global outreach. Their collaborative rolodex includes top-shelf retailers, musicians, fashion labels, and all-around creatives, all of which seem to be eaten up by the public. Sneaker Politics enters the conversation with a unique project to overlap with the renowned SXSW music festival; on March 8th, this special GEL-Kayano 14 will be available exclusively at Sneaker Politics’ Austin, TX location at 11 AM CT.
Inspired by the “Just Say No” anti-drug campaign helmed by former First Lady Nancy Reagan, this GEL-Kayano 14 features gold and silver overlays with a vibrant pop of red on the heel. The midsole is highlighted by a pre-aged cream yellow to allow the GEL inserts to pop. The insoles further tells the story as a hemp pattern is covered in a red shade.
This exclusive release will drop in-store on a first come first serve basis on March 8th at 11 AM CT exclusively at their Auston store, while an online raffle will be open from March 5th through the 8th. Any remaining pairs will be available online on Monday, March 10th at 9 AM CT.
