Retro Futuristic Layered Sneakers

ASICS' New FB1-S GEL-PRELEUS is Curated In-Studio

The brand new FB1-S GEL-PRELEUS sneaker silhouette is made possible with the help of the Womanswear studio at ASISCS, which is led by the takens of Laura and Deanna Fanning. The shoe is designed to honor feminine shapes in a way that boasts retro futuristic design concepts.

The shoes are made from many layers, with mesh paneling on top of one another and leather materials joining the upper as well. The rest of the shoe includes the GEL tooling along the sole unit for support and unique aesthetics that cannot be missed. There are two colorway options that arrive for the FB1-S GEL-PRELEUS sneaker, including either Carrier Gray with Metropolis of a lighter option of Pink Rave with Olive Canvas.
