ASICS' 'HER HERITAGE' Launch Revitalizes Three New Silhouettes

After unveiling five updated silhouettes back in September, ASICS has added another three models to its 'HER HERITAGE' lineup.

This time, the brand revisits the 'GEL-1090,' 'GEL-NANDI OG,' and 'JAPAN S PF.' All of the versatile silhouettes are marked with pastel hues of peach, mint green, and forest green—which contrast against a white base. With these color combinations, all of the sneakers are well-suited to neutral fall looks, but can easily transition to the summer months ahead.

The sneakers were unveiled along with a stylized editorial campaign, which celebrates the relationship between mothers and daughters. To do so, ASICS features Korean-American chef Kristen Kish and her mother Judy, along with fashion editor and writer Ava Nirui and her mother Meredith.
