The ASICS Edit: SS26

It’s officially an ASICS summer.

We’re shouting ASICS for your new-season lineup. With roots in running and sportswear, ASICS has been quietly making a play for the streetwear scene – growing and growing in popularity among sneakerheads and trendsetters.

So, it only makes sense that we’re stacking our rotation with anything and everything ASICS. And with new colourways of iconic models dropping, the Japanese-born brand is coming through with some serious heat this season.

Have a look at what’s making waves.

ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14

Since it landed on the scene back in 2008, the GEL-KAYANO 14 has become a staple sneaker ready for casual vibes and daily steps.

A silhouette that started out as a distance running shoe, it’s more suited to city life. With a bold, retro design, the GEL-KAYANO 14 features an airy open-hole mesh upper with dynamic synthetic layers and metallic accents.

With a sharp, streamlined profile, they sit on a foam midsole with GEL technology for unbeatable cushioning.

ASICS GEL-NYC

Fusing future-driven tech with a retro running design, the ASICS GEL-NYC is an essential for city days. This silhouette’s inspired by the spirited energy of New York City.

With motion and movement at the centre of this design, the GEL-NYC pairs lightweight textiles with soft suede and synthetic layers for that textured look.

Underfoot, that segmented sole with GEL inserts catches the eye and cushions your step. Exploring new spots or staying closer to home. The ASICS GEL-NYC never misses.

ASICS GT-2160

ASICS brings back early ‘00s aesthetics with the GT-2160.

Ultra clean and lightweight, these ones are a classic running-inspired style, re-engineered for your everyday outfits.

Paying tribute to technical design details as seen in ASICS’ GT-2000 series, this model keeps key elements like wavy forefoot sculpting and a segmented midsole. GEL inserts deliver advanced cushioning, so they’re mega comfy wherever you step.

Landing in a selection of new colours like black, grey and white with navy, each pair’s detailed with silver metallics for that energy-driven feel.

ASICS GEL-1130

This ASICS model is Y2K through and through.

The GEL-1130 was originally dropped in ‘08, and they’re one of our favourite retro runners out there.

Taking cues from running aesthetics and technical comfort, they’re a clean, lightweight pick for your everyday rotation. With metallic details that nod to those old-school track styles and soft mesh through the upper, we can’t get enough of these this season.

It’s officially time to tap into your GEL-1130 era.

In trending tones

An ASICS edit packed with pink? We’re listening.

From festival seasons and city breaks to morning coffee walks and sports sessions, there’s an ASICS pair for every occasion.

And if you’re looking to add something new to your rotation, we think these pairs with pops of pink are it.

With a collection of cute models like the GEL-NYC 2.0 and the GEL-1130, step out in new ASICS for every one of your summer plans.
