ASICS launches a new colorway of the GEL-Kayano 5 sneakers and it is designed with inspiration drawn from grapes. The refreshing new colorway is part of the Spring/Summer 2019 season and the structure is built for stabilizing wearers during long-distance running.
The shoes are grounded in the signature GEL technology that is constructed from a plethora of layered overlays and heavy tooling systems. The overall aesthetics nod to the 90s as it showcases retro designs and bright pops of color. The colorway feature hits of teal, white, and purple, blending together seamlessly to play into the retro theme. The lacing system showcases the label's signature Quadra system and there is an additional GEL at the heel area.
