ASICS continues to prove why it remains firmly at the center of today’s tech-runner movement. All it takes is the debut of a fresh new colorway of the ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1. Dubbed “Ice Green,” the latest iteration once again leans into the exact formula that has propelled ASICS to the forefront of contemporary sneaker style: metallic silver overlays, breathable mesh construction, and performance-rooted design language that effortlessly translates from running to everyday wear.
At first glance, the shoe immediately checks all the boxes fans have come to expect from modern ASICS releases, following the aforementioned formula for retail success. What truly elevates this pair is the use of its minty aqua “Ice Green” shade which appears throughout the mesh underlay as well as the visible GEL cushioning pods embedded within the midsole.
The sheer strength of its inline product is what continues to separate ASICS from many competitors within the tech-runner lane. While collaborations certainly generate headlines, including recent projects like the Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1 “Spark”, the Japanese sportswear imprint has reached a point where seasonal general-release styles are often just as sought-after as limited-edition partnerships. This “Ice Green” is proof.
The ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1 “Ice Gravel” is available now for $170 through ASICS; they’ll be hitting partnering retailers soon.
