South Korean imprint UNAFFECTED introduces three tonal iterations of its own take on the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 sneaker model for the season. The imprint has been making a statement in the realm of apparel design and accessories as well and with its latest collaboration, sneakers are its latest work.
Taking the silhouette as the base foundation, the three-piece collection is led by a tactical design language that is secured by trail-influenced lacing systems and a bold metallic look throughout the upper. Fans are to expect the drop to happen sometime along with the Fall/Winter 2023 selection. The three colorway palettes of the familiar shoe include an off-white or cream hue, dark grey, and a bolder green version.
