The Asics Gel-Lyte Christmas sneakers celebrate the most wonderful time of the year, but you won't find any snowflakes or Santas on them.
The Christmas colorways come in two patterns. The first is modeled on the Gel-Lyte III silhouette and features a 'Bad Santa' theme. It has a sleek nubuck upper, colored in vibrant red and charcoal black with gray accents. It may be reminiscent of Santa Claus, but only once he's come down a particularly tricky chimney. The second Asics Christmas sneaker has a Gel-Lyte V silhouette and has a turquoise and gray color scheme. It also has a nubuck upper for some polish and shine.
The unconventional Christmas sneakers don't display the normal red, white and green of the holiday season, but they're a creative take on Christmas that sneakerheads will love.
