Join us, as we go through Our Top 5 ASICS Sneakers that are currently available.
It goes without saying that ASICS is absolutely killing the game, pushing boundaries with performance technology and a sleek visual aesthetic. From pristine collaborations with the likes of C.P Company and Cecilie Bahnsen, to utilising advanced design tech for unparalleled functionality, the Japanese label is truly a force to be reckoned with. Within this round-up, we’ll be listing our Top 5 ASICS Sneakers of the moment, so you can indulge in the greatness. Listed in no particular order, let’s take a look!
First up, we have the stunning GEL-KAYANO 14. Drawing inspiration from the late 2000s nostalgia this retro running silhouette was the first of the GEL-KAYANO family tree to be crafted by someone other than the OG creator, Toshikazu Kayano. Passing the torch to a new era, this sneaker not only pays homage to its roots but also sparks a rejuvenation of the brand’s core values, pushing the boundaries of performance evolution. Revisiting the original midsole tooling infused with cutting-edge GEL technology for optimal cushioning, these kicks go far beyond by enhancing the upper fit while preserving the layered leather and mesh construction reminiscent of the 2008 aesthetic.

A stand-out from the EARTHENWARE Pack, next up we have the GEL-1130 NS. Breaking the mould of tradition, the sneaker’s design undergoes a style metamorphosis, boasting rip-stop underlays, no-sew reinforcements, and a captivating play of tonal colour blocking that adds a dash of technical flair to its aesthetic. But, as with all ASICS offerings, there’s much more than what meets the eye. This retro runner encapsulates GEL technology within the heel sector, delivering comfort that goes the distance. Fusing style and substance for an immaculate end product, these kicks are the definition of on-the-go steez.

If you haven’t seen this model doing the rounds on socials, allow us to introduce you. A collaborative curation of style between Kiko Kostadinov Studio and ASICS Sportstyle, this eye-catching US4-S GEL-TERRAIN does it all. Donning an experimental aesthetic with bright hues adorning a wide-knit base, the shoe’s visual persona reflects its progressive performance elements. The Japanese brands’ GEL Tech keeps impact to a minimum, whilst increasing shock absorption for unmatched comfort. Looking towards the lower, a FlyteFoam midsole rounds off the innovative offering, providing lightweight and responsive movement.

Next on our list of Top 5 ASICS Sneakers, it’s the GEL-NYC, fusing notes from both retro and contemporary runners. The upper references the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS with a distinctive edge, exuding an intricately crisp persona. Diverging from the nostalgic essence imbued in the upper, the footwear’s tooling takes a distinctive turn with the incorporation of the GEL-CUMULUS 16 shoe’s system. Within the midsole, a fusion of lightweight foams and strategically placed GEL technology seamlessly orchestrates an elevated comfort experience.

Last, but certainly not least, we have the GEL-QUANTUM KINETIC – where experimental engineering meets the trials and tribulations of the everyday. Showcasing a symphony of synthetic leathers and mesh panelling, the exterior boasts a vision of stealthy style. Deriving its appearance from the ASICS hall of fame: GEL-NIMBUS, GEL-KUSHON and GEL-KINSEI, there was no way that this shoe would look anything less than perfection. Scutoid GEL technology takes centre stage within the midsole, redefining shock absorption for a journey with ease. When functionality looks this good, we have no choice but to cop.
