HAL STUDIOS continues to work in collaboration alongside ASICS as the duo launches the Glacier version of the GEL-1130 MK III sneaker model. This marks the duo's third and last GEL-1130 collaborative silhouette, closing out the trilogy. Starting with the construction, the sneaker appears to be made from both mesh and suede for a breathable yet premium look and feel throughout the upper.
The side of the shoe highlights the ASICS Tiger Stripes for a branded touch. Similar to the previous Forest iteration, the shoe is also detailed with touches of black leather accents to add some contrast against the other materials that are done in a crisp white. The laces are complete in a bright red with HAL STUDIOS branding at the heel to round it out.
