Athlete-Tested Running Footwear

The ASICS Innovation in Motion collection is a range that is intended to satisfy the necessities of sport on the professional level. To showcase this dedication to silhouette construction and technology, the brand taps Francisco Balagtas — a semi-competitive long-distance runner, to test the limits of the ASICS GEL-NIMBUS 21 within the urban environment. The trial is captured in a dynamic editorial that truly spotlights the style of the shoe while alluding to the model's "high-energy return and superior shock absorption." The GEL-NIMBUS 21 stands out particularly with its black, orange and gold colorway which significantly adds an aura of luxe to the design without taking away from its sporty aesthetic.

Other models in the ASICS Innovation in Motion footwear pack include the ASICS FT-2000 7 and the ROADHAWK FF 2.
