The most recent color pack of ASICS Gel-Lyte V sneakers comes with an innovative and quirky concept: that the pairs should be worn with mismatched left and right feet.
The Gel-Lyte V is one of ASICS' most popular silhouettes, and with this latest color pack it gets an unusual makeover. The new Gel-Lyte Vs come in four separate colorways. Each one features a tan leather and white mesh upper in the classic Gel-Lyte V design. The tan and white is complemented by a vibrantly colored sock upper in one of four colors: Teal, Coral, Royal or Violet. Each shoe also comes with four sets of laces, one each in black and brown and two -- a flat and a rope lace -- in the vivid accent color.
Not only can wearers of the mix and match Gel-Lyte Vs experiment with their lace style and color, they are also meant to purchase multiple pairs or exchange with friends and family in order to have mismatched pairs of multiple colors.
