After dropping at Dover Street Market locations earlier this year, Kiko Kostadinov‘s collaboration with ASICS is set to get a wider release. The sneaker fuses together elements of different ASICS silhouettes — including the GEL-NIMBUS and GEL-VENTURE — to create the unique, athletic-influenced GEL-BURZ 1.

Other features of the sneaker include a woven textile upper, ASICS’ signature FlyteFoam technology and GEL-cushioning systems. The GEL-BURZ 1 comes in three colorways, with black and gray versions sitting alongside an eye-catching flourescent yellow colorway. The sneaker’s appearance has led to it being described as the ultimate dad shoe, although Kostadinov recently explained why he doesn’t understand that trend. The sneaker is set to drop on HBX at 10PM HKT (9AM EST) on March 1.

In related news, ASICS has also recently launched a collaboration with asphaltgold.
