ASICS SportStyle Combines Trail And Basketball Styles For HS3-S GEL-NANDI
Designed in partnership with the Kiko Kostadinov Studio.
Fresh off the back of releasing two HN2-S PROTOBLAST, Kiko Kostadinov further extends his ASICS inline initiatives by introducing an all-new basketball-inspired silhouette in the HS3-S GEL-NANDI SP V GTX.
The Bulgarian designer — who is a long-time ASICS collaborator — has dived into the sportswear label’s extensive archives to take notes from retro all-weather trail boots and basketball footwear to design a durable-looking hi-top silhouette.
Also borrowing styles from ASICS’ GELBURST sneaker, the HS3-S GEL-NANDI SP V GTX boasts an upper doused in a weather-resistant GORE-TEX coat, and an outsole engineered with the GEL-NANDI trainer’s signature rugged tooling. Underfoot a traction pattern has been designed to combat snow, ice and other treacherous terrain, while GEL technology cushioning delivers ultimate comfort no matter what.
Arriving in either “Sea Glass/Lichen Rock” or “Graphite Grey/Carrier Grey”, the HS3-S GEL-NANDI SP V GTX is set to drop on March 18 via the ASICS webstore, retailing at £150 (approximately $190 USD).
In other footwear news, adidas has dropped its SUPERTURF ADVENTURE in an understated grey colorway.
