ASICS presents a look at its new sneaker model in the form of the GEL-Kahana 8, which appears to be a slip-on silhouette. However, it is actually enclosed by a Fast Lace system true to the brand and can be easily adjustable to keep wearers' feet secure. To do so, there is an elastic and pull cord that allows for easy tightening whenever that is needed.
It is a comfortable design and has an effortless technology infused throughout the entire silhouette. Some details include the high-vis accents that provide a vibrant touch and mesh details for breathability throughout the upper. Currently, the sneakers are only available to shop in China and can be purchased online at Alibaba.
