Asics UB2-S Gel-1130 Shoes in Metropolis and Lichen Rock. Inspired by the brand’s iconic 1130 running silhouette and designed by Bulgarian designer Kiko Kostadinov, the performative Asics UB2-S Gel-1130 is a modernised track and field profile remastered to suit the demands of contemporary living. Styled with breathable open mesh uppers and the brand’s pioneering GEL cushioning system ingrained into its impact absorbing midsole, these low collared shoes are designed to provide superior traction without compromise. With a luxe-like aesthetic that stems from its icy blue undertones and premium rubber reinforcements, this resilient sneaker is designed with all terrain capability instilled into its core. Odes to the brand’s Ontisuka Tiger legacy are retained through the iconic side wall decals, whilst the auxetic toe bumper overlay provides additional protection to suit. A 6 eyelet lacing system pairs classic fastenings with a futuristic lace loop system to help secure the laces across the arch of the foot, with the padded mesh tongue styled with an ergonomic Asics branded tongue pull for quick and easy access. Signed off with custom insoles in tonal shades of lichen rock as a complement to its refined yet performative remastering.
