The CURATORIAL Collection, curated style by Kiko Kostadinov Studio and ASICS features reworked versions of the US5-S GEL-QUANTUM KINETIC™, US4-S GEL-TERRAIN™, and UB6-S GT-2160™ sneakers.
This collection draws inspiration from various material environments (Brandishing, Lucent Gloss, Soft and Hard Frames, and Pattern Tessellations) that juxtapose one another. These influences harmoniously balance the ideas of symmetry, repetition, geometry, and the beauty of imperfection.
The colour palettes reference themes surrounding subverted shadows, new neutrals, and pastel touch. Each theme is influenced by: the sublime descent into the darkest shades, sensations of serenity, and complementary hues involving tints.
The GEL-TERRAIN™ sneaker draws inspiration from our GEL-FUJITRABUCO™ series.
Dynamic lines from our early trail running archive are met with technical welding and no-sew elements. It's also met with a speed lacing system that's convenient for easy on and off access.
The tooling was borrowed from the GT-2000™ 8 sneaker. It combines FLYTEFOAM™ cushioning and GEL™ technology to help create a lightweight and energised feel for everyday scenarios
