The Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC Is Almost Here
The latest Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC ‘Black’ collaboration is one for the books, and honestly, it’s no surprise. After all, what happens when two Japanese labels join forces to collaborate on a shoe? Sheer. Sneaker. Perfection. Utilising the GEL-NYC silhouette as its muse, progressive streetwear brand Needles is bringing its hybrid aesthetic to the innovative model, equipped with premium craftsmanship from both collaborators. Let’s get stuck into the details…
A Closer Look at the Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC ‘Black’ (1201B008-001)…
Previously collaborating on the ASICS EX89 in October of last year, the duo championed the fashion label’s signature purple hue throughout detailing. The GEL-NYC at hand leads with an intricate black exterior, injecting vibrant purple hits into the laces, stitching and co-branding. Composed from tumbled leather and canvas, the shoe exudes sophisticated steez for versatile and effective styling.
Co-branding comes in clutch on the tongue, with each collaborator separately adopting each sneaker. Looking towards the back, Needles’ synonymous butterfly emblem proudly graces the heel in its reigning purple hue. And last but not least, as always with any ASICS model, comfort never goes amiss – decked out with a Gel-NYC midsole for unparalleled support.
The Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC ‘Black’ is releasing THURSDAY 1ST MARCH 2024 at ASICS, NEEDLES & SELECT RETAILERS. Find all stockist info via the banner below…
