The GmbH x GEL-NANDI™ 360 is an amalgamation of two key features from signature ASICS sneakers. For instance, its sleek design is comprised of the GEL-QUANTUM 360™ unmissable cushioning trail running along its outsole, while the sneaker’s body adopts the heritage trail running style from ASICS’ GEL-NANDI™ OG.
Available in two colours — Skeletal White; the colour of the human spine and bones, and Icy Morning; a shade of turquoise reminiscent of the Aegean Sea, these sneakers represent the essential elements required for the building blocks of the human body which parallels the everyday functionality of the footwear suited for all lifestyles.
