ASICS Launches a GEL-PTG MT Fastener Sneaker for SS20

ASICS introduce its new GEL-PTG MT Fastener sneaker model and this time around, the Japanese brand focuses on an asymmetrical design element. The silhouette features branding details across the top of the model as ASICS is stamped right above the white nylon material.

To fasten the sneakers to the wearer's foot, there are slim shaped tonal laces with some contrasting accents at the tongue. The remainder of the sneakers' uppers are complete in a creamy light beige hue informed by sturdy nubuck materials. The lateral side of the model features the logo's stripes in white and the other side of the shoe features the stripes in black. There are also some olive green and light blue top-stitching on the end of the stripes.
