ASICS has released a new colorway for one of its most popular silhouettes, the 'GEL-1130.' This shoe features an eccentric, geometric design with a signature striped pattern on the upper and a mix of geometric, asymmetrical shapes around the heel. The new GEL-1130 takes inspiration from both comfortable running shoes and other entries in the 'GEL-1100' series, making this shoe both cozy and stylish.
The shoe features a blue-gray mesh across the entire body with accents placed on top of this mesh. The signature wavy grid-like pattern appears on the upper in a light blue, while the eyestay, toe, and heel are colored in a darker blue. The midsole is a bright white with a clear rubber rear. Finally, the front of the toe vamp and the top of the heel feature a unique design that incorporates green-blue shapes on one side, yet not on the other side.
