Australian retail label Above The Clouds works in collaboration with ASICS for the first time to design a pair of the GEL-1090 sneaker model. This is to celebrate the brand's 10th anniversary and the entire collaboration embodies the philosophy of ASICS -- 'Sounds Mind, Sound Body.'
The footwear brand is very sophistication through performance designs and the latest silhouette features minimal detailing with a premium construction to highlight the importance of the make up. The uppers are an off-white color, serving as the base foundation with additional mesh underlays before it is detailed with clear tiger stripes. These stripes can be found on the heel counter and on the mudguard which are complete in ASICS blue color. Branding details are found on the lateral side of the footwear with additional references to the philosophy on the tongue.
