Two of Japan’s biggest street brands have come together for a limited edition drop of their flagship products – the ASICSTIGER Gel-Mai Knit and the G-Shock GBA-800AT. Combining ASICS’s stylish street kicks with the toughness and hardiness of G-SHOCK, this pack is all about functionality meets street vibes.
Let’s take a closer look at the ASICSTIGER sneakers first. The classic Gel-Mai Knit shoes come in two colourways – black and white. Both shoes have red accents on the aglets, and the insoles and uppers feature the logos from both brands.
You’ll also notice that the Gel-Mai Knit has that asymmetrical lacing system that just makes it stand out from all the other shoes when it was first launched back in the 90s. Oh, and it also helps to wrap the shoe snugly around your feet. The solid shoe colours are also super versatile – you can easily match it to any wardrobe for a clean look.
