ASICS has partnered with designer Kiko Kostadinov to launch the UB13-S GEL-SD LYTE, a conceptual sneaker blending running heritage with artistic elements. The shoe features a 'Black Coffee/Midnight' palette and shell-like upper layers inspired by eggshells. It is available now for $190 on ASICS' website.
The UB13-S GEL-SD LYTE draws from ASICS' technical running legacy but adopts a more experimental design. Its upper incorporates sculpted, shell-like layers evoking the fragile yet strong nature of an eggshell, paired with gradients reminiscent of moonlit or deep-sea atmospheres. The muted 'Black Coffee/Midnight' colorway gives it a subtle, moody appeal suited for night owls or detail-focused wearers. ASICS maintains its signature bouncy, lightweight sole for comfort on pavement or casual wear. This collaboration emphasizes progressive style without overt flashiness, targeting those who appreciate understated craftsmanship. The sneaker is priced at $190 and available directly from ASICS' website.
