  • (1888PressRelease) March 04, 2017 - The iconic GEL-KAYANO TRAINER shoe, a mainstay of the GEL series featuring shock-absorbing GEL cushioning, will be re-introduced with a knit fabric as the GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT. The icon, reborn using new technology, marks a new stage for ASICS Tiger.

    The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER debuted in 1993 as ASICS Tiger's flagship performance and running shoe. A distinctive tongue-and-upper monosock structure and the ASICS stripe on the side were the hallmarks of the model. The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER shoe was hugely popular among sneaker fans all over for its high-tech performance-improving design of the 1980s and 90s coupled with a unique beetle motif design. Today, more than 20 years since its debut, the GEL-KAYANO TRAINER has been re-born with the latest technology in a new context.

    The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER'S upper design knit fabric makes reappearance, while the original distinctive rubber ASICS stripe accentuates the minimalist look of the GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT's monotone upper. The knit of each individual part varies, and the soft texture lends itself not only to the design but also strengthens the hold for a more comfortable fit. A smooth silhouette combining both function and design evokes a mode sense.
    The legend is back. Harkening a rebirth, an icon returns to life. AN ICON IS REBORN in 2017.

    Product details
    「GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT」
    The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT was inspired by ASICS Tiger's iconic shoe, the GEL-KAYANO TRAINER. The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT features a minimalist style that harmonizes a knit upper with the ASICS stripe handed down from the original model. The technology, developed at ASICS's Institute of Sports Science, offers the sporty fit and hold required of a sneaker in the soft texture of a knit. GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT comes in 10 minimalist chic color combinations, including sophisticated monotones White/White and Black/Black as well as earth-tone variations like Birch and Agave Green and spring colors Birch and Bay. Two models with boldly-accented color combinations are also available.

    「GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT MT」
    ASICS has reintroduced the GEL KAYANO TRAINER as a middle-cut shoe with a knit pattern design. The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT MT features a simple yet eye-catching knit upper and comfortable fit. The gentle knit cradles up to the ankle and offers a soft fit, creating a sense of oneness between shoe and foot, while the ankle-slimming silhouette has been freshly updated to coordinate with everyday street wear. The GEL-KAYANO TRAINER KNIT MT is available in two colors, White and Black.

    ASICS Tiger introduces the GEL-LYTE KOMACHI, its first model designed expressly for women.

    ASICS designed the GEL-LYTE KOMACHI based on the concept of Soft/Light/Easy, with the intention of making a women's shoe suitable for everyday wear.

    The GEL-LYTE KOMACHI is evocative of the GEL-LYTE series, ASICS Tiger's classic line-up, but has been updated to fit in with today's everyday street activity.

    ASICS Tiger has focused on the design details. The upper is made of jacquard mesh for a casual feel, and the supple structure of the toe and heel portions allow for a smooth fit.

    The sole's raised heel is designed for a back-to-front movement flow, and this also makes for a cleaner, more line AR appearance.

    With its sharp form and solid monotone, the GEL-LYTE KOMACHI can be easily coordinated with a variety of looks.
