High fashion tailoring meets heritage sportswear in this unique collaboration between Thom Browne and ASICS. Rooted in a shared design philosophy where craftsmanship and quality reign supreme, the partnership sees Browne reinterpret one of ASICS’ signature silhouettes, the GEL-KAYANO 14, through his unmistakable lens.
Browne has admired ASICS’ approach to design for years, as shared in the press release, one guided by the ethos that the product speaks for itself. That alignment in values forms the foundation of this drop. The result? A sleek, sculptural sneaker that bridges the worlds of runway and track with effortless precision.
Browne’s mastery of tailored sportswear shines through in the details. An optional catch-lace system features in red, white and blue grosgrain, nodding to medals Browne earned as a varsity swimmer and long-distance runner back in the day. Two sets of lace options build on the designer’s signature bespoke touches and offer us a way to make the sneakers feel more personal.
The design integrates seamlessly into his wardrobe classics, maintaining the sharp, uniformed sensibility synonymous with his name. Remember that Doechii look at the 2025 Grammys? This shoe is in good hands. Made to feel at home both on the runway and on the track, this is your latest sneaker must-have.
The drop is now available via the Thom Browne website.
