Release Details: ASICS UB1-S GEL-Kayano 14
The x collaborations did very well, catering to both sneakerheads and fashion enthusiasts. The duo enjoyed a hot run, dropping multiple silhouettes for both men and women. While the recent team-up was suggested to be their last, it looks like the partnership isn’t done yet – albeit under slightly different arrangements. ASICS and the Kiko team will be working alongside each other to help with the creation of new styles with different materials and new colour palettes, but the models won’t be co-branded.
Kicking off the second coming, ASICS have debuted the UB1-S 14. Three colourways have surfaced, one being a muted black, grey and green, one in a purple and red, with another wearing vibrant pink, orange and white. The three have been blessed with a mesh and leather combo, and a large pull-tab on the tongue.
Kostadinov recently used Instagram to explain the ongoing partnership, and to clarify a few specifics. He confirmed the shoes will not be co-branded, as it’s not a new line, but his team will be working very closely with ASICS to curate 10 styles per season. We’re already excited to see what’s next!
Two colourways of the UB1-S GEL-Kayano 14 will arrive at select ASICS retailers on November 27.
