ASICS, while continually advancing running technology, has brought back classic designs like the GT-2160, this time with a lifestyle focus.
Originally introduced in 2011, the ASICS GT-2160 served as a more affordable alternative to the GEL-Kayano 14, ASICS' prominent stability-centered running shoe. Its design mirrors the brand's signature style, blending mesh panels, a predominant silver color scheme, and a robust, performance-oriented sole unit. The latest iteration of the GT-2160 by the renowned Japanese brand keeps true to its heritage with a touch of modernity. Sporting a familiar color palette of silver, white, and black, this release adds a touch of shimmering gold accents throughout the upper, introducing a new element to the classic arrangement.
Underneath, the shoe retains its visible GEL cushioning and performance-oriented elements, maintaining a grayscale finish that complements the retro-inspired aesthetics. The combination of these elements upholds the shoe's running heritage while delivering a vintage vibe tailored for contemporary wear.
The GT-2160 is poised to make its return on asics.com on Friday, December 8th, retailing at $120 USD. Check out the official photos below to appreciate the fusion of heritage and modernity in this revamped ASICS classic.
