Asics’ newest Gel-Kayano is a mix of metallic and color

Asics reveals new Gel-Kayano sneaker

It’s no secret that Asics has used the last couple of seasons to make use of their entire color collection for their newest releases. From vibrant hues to sleek neutral shades, Asics has used almost every color imaginable for their latest additions. Now, the athletic brand is taking on a lesser-used shade to really make a statement. With a touch of metallic shine, the newest sneaker is anything but subtle or typical. Instead, this mashup of hues allows for the ultimate combination of colors that’ll bring a pop of color to your closet. Even for those weary of adding too much vibrancy into your shoe rotation, this new sneaker is low-key enough to work with any outfit you have in mind. 

Get ready for the new ASICS Gel-Kayano 12.1 in Silver/Red

Crafted with white mesh uppers, the sneaker dons a contrast with metallic silver overlays that provide a light and shinier look. Adding a bolder hue to the design are burgundy red accents that have been added near the sockliner, the Kayano logo, and the Asics stripes. A translucent detail has also been added to the midsole, bringing the entire colorway pairing together. The overall silhouette of the sneaker takes the shape of the Gel-Kayano 12, while the outsole mimics that of the Gel-Nimbus 17 model, giving it a wonderful blend of previous silhouettes and modern tech. While Asics has yet to reveal a launch date for the sneaker, all signs point to a 2025 launch. An interesting mix of silver and burgundy, this Asics sneaker is the ultimate mix of luxe hues.

Although it might seem like a collaboration with a particular soft drink, New Balance’s latest 9060 sneaker is an in-house project that exudes color. Similar to the recently announced ‘Cyber Jade,’ the new sneaker from the athletic company is a bold composition of color far from its typical neutrals and monochromatic color palettes. A far cry from last month’s ‘Grey Days,’ the New Balance 9060 has been reworked to incorporate colors and hues that make it feel like a true summer sneaker.

While its official release is still to be announced, this version of the New Balance 9060 is only part of the releases the brand has planned for the model this year. Although this might be the brand’s most colorful version thus far, it doesn’t mean it’s any less of a performance sneaker than its predecessors. A vibrant pop to add to your wardrobe, get ready for one of New Balance’s most statement sneakers of 2025.

While May was all about New Balance’s ‘Grey Days’ celebration, June is shaping into a more eccentric and colorful month. Last month, the athletic company celebrated its traditional hue with a month-long celebration of pop-ups, new releases, and one-of-a-kind surprises. However, New Balance has announced its latest release to start a new chapter, which is the complete opposite of their last celebration. Aptly named ‘Cyber Jade,’ the newest shoe is an eccentric color combination that ditches the subtle grey for brilliant, bright, and bold hues. Taking on one of the brand’s most iconic and traditional silhouettes, New Balance quickly ditches the classic grey, showcasing a firm grasp of all the colors, and isn’t afraid to use them.
