atmos and [ASICS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelterrain) join forces again on a new collaborative project -- this time, the duo spotlights the [GEL-Venture 6](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asics-gelventure-6) GTX sneaker model. It is completely adorned in weatherized detailing due to the [GORE-TEX fabrication](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goretex-gazelle) across the entire silhouette.

The colorway options include either a blend of Sand and Evening Sand for a more vibrant completion or White and Electric Blue. Accompanying the sneakers are a long sleeve top and amenity pouch, both of which are detailed with co-branding efforts nodding to the two contributing brands. Notably, the shoes can combat different weather conditions backed up by the functional fabrication such as breathable mesh textiles along with rubber and leather. All of this sits atop a GEL midsole foundation for ultimate comfort and support.
