When it comes to ASICS, collaborations have been springing out from the brand in recent memory such as its projects with GmbH and Kirsch Cherry Brandy, but it’s ready to bring more awareness to its inline releases to conclude the month of March. The Japanese sportswear brand is bringing back its Academic Scholar Pack — an initiative that started back in 2019 — with two new colorways of the GEL-LYTE III and GT-II just in time for Spring Break.

For this sophomore capsule, the brand has approached each offering with a varsity-inspired motif and employs elevated materials for a premium look and feel. The GEL-LYTE III OG iteration is titled the “Semester 1” rendition and comes fitted with leather and pigskin suede base layers. A collegiate green hue styles up the perforated toe boxes, quarters and middle of the midsoles while matted purple and vanilla accents follow suit. The “Semester 2” GT-IIs essentially come fashioned with the same hues but with an opposite presentation as they are crafted with a purple matte base and green overlays. Sprinkles of yellow also drop off on both pairs to nod to the collection’s prestigious influence.

Expect the GEL-LYTE III OG to release on April 1 for $120 USD and the GT-II to drop in June for $110 USD via select retailers.
