In collaboration with Spanish retailer sivasdescalzo (SVD), ASICS brings you an exclusive version of the iconic GEL-LYTE™ III OG silhouette taking inspiration from planet earth with an eco-conscious approach to sneaker design.
A game-changer in the running industry when it first launched in 1990 with its tri-sole density cushioning and split-tongue design features – the GEL-LYTE™ III OG has seen its fair share of reinterpretations over the years by a roster of renowned international retailers, but SVD’s version of the GEL-LYTE™ III OG aims for a complete approach to eco-conscious design. The SVD x ASICS GEL-LYTE™ III OG reimagines sneaker design and manufacturing processes, seeking out a range of innovative and environmentally conscious materials to highlight each of the silhouette’s iconic characteristics.
Textured fabrics and recycled elements include an upper made of cotton, eco-leather overlays adorning ASICS’ stripe logo, partially recycled foam on the tongue, 100% recycled plastic bottle insoles, as well as 100% jute fibre laces. The silhouette comes in unique packaging that has been specially designed for collaboration and pays tribute to both brands and our planet.
