[ASICS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-glo-colorway) introduces a new neon colorway design of its signature GEL-Kinsei OG sneaker model that feature a blend of yellow tones. The sneaker is constructed from a blend of materials that range all the way from smooth leather to batted nylon at the uppers.

The top of the sneaker has a patch logo in a diamond shape over the tongue on top of the semi-clear overlays made from nylon materials. In order to contrast the bright colors, the laces are done in gray to root the vibrant model alongside the charcoal accents that can be found outlining the sneaker's backstay and the side stripes. There are branding details at the rear quarter with slightly clear rubber panels over the forefoot area.
