Product Insights & Style Tips

The ASICS White Gel-Kayano 12.1 sneakers channel a coolly utilitarian ’90s runner vibe, updated with just the right amount of technical modernity. A sleek mix of mesh and faux leather in crisp white with graphite accents gives these low-tops an elevated aerodynamics, while the iconic ASICS stripes along the sides and tongue add that instantly recognizable heritage edge. Padded details along the tongue and collar accentuate their plush, sport-luxe feel—think unbothered streetwear energy meets archival tennis club polish.

These sneakers offer a satisfyingly substantial sole with FLUIDRIDE® cushioning and GEL® technology underfoot, giving them a stable, springy profile that makes quick city loops or all-day errands feel less like a marathon. The mesh lining and low-cut shape help them breathe and move naturally with your step, while a classic lace-up keeps things tailored to your ideal fit. The treaded outsole holds steady on city pavement yet stays clean-lined enough to anchor anything from oversized cargos to slip dresses—layer in chunky socks or go bare for a different attitude, knowing the softly padded collar complements wherever your plans (or mood shifts) take you.

Slip the Gel-Kayano 12.1s into rotation if you’re tapped into the ongoing wave of sneaker nostalgia or just want footwear with streetwear legitimacy. ASICS’ blend of technical prowess and distinctly normcore flavor lands these firmly on the radars of both purist sneakerheads and the fashion set, serving a silhouette that looks as directional on a gallery crawl as it does at a quick coffee run.

Kiko Kostadinov and ASICS Turn Tabi Shoe Launch into a Visual Story

Kiko Kostadinov and ASICS just flipped the sneaker playbook with a tabi-split toe collaboration that feels more like art than a traditional campaign. Rather than run a typical series of product visuals, the London-based designer handed full creative reins to conceptual artist Ryan Trecartin, resulting in a tri-part experiential project built around imagery, film, and music that literally riffs on shoes. The core of the launch is a trio of new split-toe sneakers connected to Kostadinov’s long partnership with ASICS, now nearly a decade old. Each model in the series anchors one act of Trecartin’s multimedia rollout.

SHUSHU TONG Reimagines ASICS Sportstyle With A New Dreamy Silhouette

The ongoing dialogue between ASICS Sportstyle and SHUSHU TONG is back, although the energy feels different this time. Instead of revisiting their previous lace wrapped silhouettes, the two labels introduce a fresh sneaker form that leans into softness without leaving the performance world behind. The teaser images center on mesh textures, ribbon accents and a pale blush palette that signals SHUSHU TONG’s romantic instinct. ASICS provides the structured base, known for its comfort driven engineering, and the combination creates a silhouette that feels youthful, feminine and slightly surreal.
