The ASICS Gel Lyte V shoes in tan and gray feature a small [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney) logo on them, as well as other motifs from the beloved fairy tale, such as red roses. ASICS also released its ASICS Gel Lyte III style in themed colorways and a special box in collaboration with Disney, although the Gel Lyte V model boasts subtler tie-ins to the film. While film-inspired clothing collections are often created for kids in the form of costumes, a number of sophisticated shoes, dresses and accessories are being launched to help adults celebrate their love of the film in less obvious ways. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Monochromatic Disney Sneakers:** ASICS Gel Lyte V sneakers featuring unique motifs from popular Disney films is a growing trend in the fashion industry. - **Film-inspired Sophisticated Clothing Collections:** The development of sophisticated clothing and accessories inspired by popular films is a growing trend in the fashion industry, particularly for adults. - **Collaborative Themed Product Launches:** Collaborative product launches, like the ASICS and Disney partnership, to create themed shoes and accessories are on the rise. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry has seen an increase in themed product launches, like the ASICS and Disney partnership, to create unique clothing and accessories. - **Entertainment Industry:** The entertainment industry's use of film-inspired merchandise is driving the popularity of themed clothing and accessories. - **Sportswear Industry:** Collaborations between sportswear companies and entertainment companies, such as ASICS and Disney, present an opportunity for both industries to create unique products and tap into new markets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Iconic Anime-Inspired Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelnyc-2.md) - [Whimsical Character-Inspired Statement Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney.md) - [Collaborative Gingham-Covered Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelventure-6-1.md) - [Villain-Themed Shoe Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kith-for-asics.md) - [Dynamic Aqua-Tonal Joint Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelkayano-20.md) - [Nature-Inspired Collaborative Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ub10s-gelkayano-20.md) - [Silver Polka Dot Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/papergirl-paris-and-beams.md) - [Bold Patterned Luxurious Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelds-trainer-14.md) - [Neutral Tonal Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelnyc-5.md)
