ASICS works in collaboration with Montreal imprint Dime on a new iteration of the GT-2160 sneaker model. It is set to launch officially tomorrow and will be available to shop at Dime. The shoe is detailed with a slew of muted tones that come together to create an effortless look.
The update highlights cream tones overlaying the upper and complete with a Tiger stripe in terms of the branding accent. There are also two different gradients that adorn both the midsole foundation and the mesh base to add some breathability. Silver accents add some tonal contrast and are layered throughout the silhouette including the notable Dime branding that marks the lateral heel section to round it out.
