ASICS recently unveiled a new iteration of its popular Onitsuka Tiger Ally silhouette, with the dual-toned pastel colorway aptly dubbed 'Parfait Pink.'
The new design is said to be "based on the Tiger Alliance design originally released in 1980," giving the sneakers a retro aesthetic that's ideal for consumers who are into old school streetwear aesthetics.
The Parfait Pink sneakers feature a light hue of flamingo pink on the majority of the uppers, with it covering most of the toes, tongues, and laces. A stark white contrasts this on the sides and heels of the uppers, while a cream midsole gives it a little more variance. The sneakers are then finished off with a light gray outsole.
