While it’s common to find a quality running shoe in ASICS’ lineup, it’s rare to see the brand offer a stealthy and technical option. In their latest collaboration with HAVEN, the athletic brand has turned a new leaf to create a more techy design that boasts a darker and edgy look. Taking on one of ASICS’ older running designs, the latest collaborative design is transformed into a modern and cutting-edge shoe full of high-performance features. Coupled with a darker hue, there’s no doubt this new design is a brand-new feel for ASICS, making it even more of a special collaboration. For those looking for a more contemporary performance sneaker, the HAVEN x ASICS partnership has produced the must-have shoe for the season. 

A new look for the Gel-Nimbus 10.1

Using the 2008-era Gel-Nimbus 10.1, the newest collaboration between HAVEN and ASICS is about adding technical features that elevate the shoe’s performance. Now including layered mesh, carbon fiber details, and reflective accents, the new sneaker exudes an edgier design that also helps accommodate the natural bone structure of the foot. The Gel-Nimbus 10.1 comes equipped with a dual-layer EVA foam midsole, GEL technology inserts, and a TRUSSTIC system to add advanced cushion and support to the sneaker. Donning a black and grey combination, the sneaker is inspired by urban concrete shadows for a moodier touch. This stealthy design will be available for fans on February 14 via ASICS’ web store. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, faithful fans of the athletic company will adore the latest collaboration that fuses each brand’s strongest characteristic.

While it's hard to make a pair of Red Wing shoes even more enticing and elevated, the design and repair studio Goods & Services has managed to do just that. On the verge of a new season, the pair has pulled out all the stops to upgrade one of Red Wing’s once-forgotten silhouettes. Released in the 1950s, the Postman was Red Wing’s stylish response for professionals looking for sophisticated comfort. Although this style was ultimately retired from the brand’s lineup, Red Wing’s partnership with Goods & Services has brought back this design with modern updates, making it an even more classy dress shoe option. Styled as an Oxford, the shoe dons a unique new look that signals a substantial departure from its original form.

While it’s no surprise to see Kith and Adidas partner up again, the collaborative collection they’ve recently revealed is undoubtedly a first for the pair. In the past, the duo has partnered up on athleisure-inspired footwear that mixes Adidas’ iconic silhouettes with Kith’s cutting-edge vision of street style. Now, the duo is partnering up for a new collection that elevates the brand’s most notable design and finds its home in Adidas’ native Germany.

Teased during Kith’s first runway show in six years, the duo has updated the Superstar sneaker with five variations, all of which are available in black and white.
