Vibrant Pink Animates the Retro ASICS GEL-1130™

With summer fast-approaching, comfortable, breathable footwear is hitting its stride. Despite a plethora of options currently offered by the world's biggest brands, the ASICS GEL-1130™ and its SportStyle kin lead the charge.

Throughout the last year-and-a-half, the retro running silhouette has exploded in popularity throughout fashionable cities across the globe, replacing heritage basketball models in many cases. Ahead of summer, the 17-year-old design has appeared in all-new ensembles—including a black, silver, and pink makeover. Color-blocking and palette are reminiscent of a previously-seen "Icy Blue" pair, which suggests a larger collection is on the way.

The bulk of the GEL-1130™'s upper indulges in a vibrant pink tone, with synthetic overlays across the profiles enjoying shimmering black and silver hues. Underfoot, the technical sole unit keeps things on trend, with visible GEL™ technology at the heel opting for an almost-red update. The predominantly-dark tooling, however, allows for contrasting elements to revel in the spotlight.

FPairs have just been listed at Champs for a July 20 release.
