ASICS designs Putty version of the iconic GEL-Venture sneaker model as the latest addition to the brand’s Fall/Winter 219 selection. The uppers are constructed from a blend of mesh and leather amongst more premium fabrication. This is complete in predominantly beige hues and it is important to note that the beige threads are sewed throughout the sneaker to hold it all together.
It is also reinforced through different panels with firm leather accents. As contrasting details at the uppers, there are some bright orange streaks. The design language prepares for many different purposes, including hiking, trails, and outdoor terrain without disrupting the stylistic elements of the design. The Putty version of the seasonal sneaker is now available for purchase at SNKRS.
