ASICS Applies Metal Studs To The Latest GEL-Lyte III/XXX Set_Fashion at Your Feet

ASICS’ GEL-Lyte III and GEL-Lyte XXX, though often paired together, stand at two opposite ends of the spectrum: one being a pillar of brand identity and the other an extremely distinct reinterpretation replete with brutalist futurism. And despite their opposing designs, the brand is continuing to color both all the same — the latest pack delivered in subtle cream palettes and a metallic embellishments.

The GEL-Lyte III easily takes to the new changes, its upper modified with new fabrications and an entirely tonal color blocking. Strike logos, toe caps, and the like are all coated in the neutral off-white while the smaller additions atop contrast in dark black much like the tooling. Gold aglets finish the laces with luxurious effect, matching that of the similarly treated logo along the heel. Its complement, the GEL-Lyte XXX, follows quite close in palette, though the black paneling of the heel counter extends forward onto the midfoot and ends along the sides of the vamp. Metallic fixtures are primarily the same as far as the laces, but the matching branding is removed for boldface black text.

Grab a detailed look at both pairs right here and sit tight as they’re readying to release tomorrow, August 14th.
