Japanese womenswear boutique emmi have dropped a bunch of exclusive sneakers over the past few years, but none of those colabs can hold a candle to this upcoming GEL-Lyte III.
The brand new ASICS team-up follows the likes of their GEL-Lyte V from 2015 and once again puts a clean, materials-driven, fashion-centric spin on the retro runner. Whereas 2015's aforementioned colab came decked out in suede and houndstooth with a predominately light grey look, these favour black throughout and are highlighted by the likes of hairy suede overlays and speckled hits to the laces and midsole. Last but not least are icy outsoles and cloudy gold heel counters.
