SOUND MIND, SOUND BODY. SOUND KICKS, TOO.
Slam Jam and Asics collaborate to envision a new playground for Asics GT-2160.
Roxy Ceron is a talent from within our Milanese community and her work intertwines nature and technology, to highlight their symbiotic encounters.
Asics GT-2160 was the perfect fit for her lenses.
The shoe’s structure is informed by its focus on movement. This all-new Asics model takes inspiration from the GT-2100, which debuted in 2011 and started off as an high-performance, budget-conscious running shoe. Fast forward to present time and this design has had more than a few iconic iterations. It innovates its look each time and it will now bring us closer to a cold wintry wind.
Asics has rooted the core identity of this model to a Japanese term, Kogarashi. It stands for that peculiar wind, which acts as a marker for the start of the winter season. If you are ever in Japan by this time of the year, know that Japan’s Meteorological Agency maintains a record of the first Kogarashi every year and it could help you pack a jacket or two.
The icy colorway and its vibrant details will make you feel at one with nature and that should feel good, we heard.
