ASICS continues to work in collaboration with Cecille Bahnsen and the two shine a spotlight on an iconic silhouette this time around -- the GEL-QUANTUM 360 VIII. The two remix the silhouette with juxtaposing concepts, resulting in a hybrid design that borders between a definition of a sandal and a sneaker at once.
The shoes are detailed with delicate floral motifs along with the classic Mary Jane straps over the forefoot. Other details include advancements such as the ASICS DIVISION SPACE tech to ensure that it is comfortable and free of any blisters. it comes in two colorway options yellow and lime green with black straps or a Tiffany blue tone for a softer feel.
