After recently releasing its GEL-LYTE III in a paisley-printed two pack, ASICS is keeping the patterned style rolling with two quilted, paisley-equipped takes on the GEL-MC Plus. Arriving in “Ash Rock/Cream” and “Black/Cream,” the duo of styles combines running and casual design cues for a unique, richly-detailed build.

First up is “Ash Rock/Cream,” which uses a trifecta of purple shades on its upper. The first of these is a regal dark purple on the quilted base, the second is a lighter lavender that provides contrast on overlays like the midfoot’s Tiger Stripe and the third is an airy periwinkle that’s used sparingly around the midfoot. Paisley is dispersed around the tongue and heel alike.

On the other end is the “Black/Cream” pair, which does away with the tonal contrast of its counterpart in favor of a monochromatic build. This provides a more simple look, but one with a greater paisley pop — as the cream embellishments stand out more boldly against the black base. Both pairs are finalized by a cream midsole with GEL cushioning in the heel and forefoot.

The “Ash Rock/Cream” and “Black/Cream” colorways of the ASICS GEL-MC Plus are available now via the ASICS webstore. Each is priced at $110 USD.
