Kiko Kostadinov works together with Heaven by Marc Jacobs for the second time and the two highlight the GEL-LOKROS ASICS Mary Janes silhouette this time around. It has a technical build and girly aesthetic as the campaign follows a young woman riding the subway.
The entire capsule by the two has a historical root and starts with the shoes and its technical elements. It rests on top of the ASICS' GEL technology for comfort and all-day wearing. The upper has a quilted design with embroidered stars throughout the silhouette and further details of rubber accents for durability. It is rounded out by the various thin straps that overlay and decorate the shoe. It comes in black and grey, lavender and pink, or light blue and silver.
