Cartoon Cat-Themed Vibrant Sneakers

ASICS' GEL-LYTE III OG Sneaker Gets an Alley Cat Design

— July 7, 2022 — Lifestyle
ASICS introduces the new playful Alley Cats design iteration that adorns its GEL-LYTE III OG sneaker model for the season. It is described by Sneaker Freaker as a sneaker that is “a fitting feline footwear tribute to the mini-boulevards that criss-cross the respective hometowns of Sneaker Freaker and atmos.”

This features a blend of both Sheet Rock and Gentry Purple throughout the shoe's uppers before it is then detailed with touches of neon green, white, and cream to round it all out. The rest of the shoe includes the matte aluminum eyelets and heel tabs that are detailed with branded accents that read "Alley Cat" and it rests on top of unique footbeds and dual-branded tongue logos.
