Andrew Rizzo Young folks in their “comfort era” have helped ASICS Sportstyle flourish in recent years, and the GEL-Kayano 14 has been a key part of that success. The model’s large backlog of strong releases has made it possible for the Japanese brand to focus on other sneakers, namely the GEL-Nimbus 10.1 and GEL-CUMULUS 16, with the confidence that the GEL-Kayano 14 is capable of selling itself. If you’re in need of a no-frills look for daily wear, this upcoming “Obsidian Grey” colorway is up to the task.
The titular “Obsidian Grey” hue settles on a standard mesh base, followed by a balanced mix of dark grey, silver, and off-white leather overlays. A slight champagne-colored tint looms over the heel paneling on both sides, while the midsole balances between white and “Cement Grey” treatments.
There was a time when GEL-Kayano 14s were challenging to cop at retail, but that hasn’t been the case since ASICS shifted its priorities to other models. This “Obsidian Grey/Cement Grey” colorway releases via Finish Line and JD Sports on September 1st, priced at $150. See official images below if these might contend for a slot in your rotation.
