It's not often that you see Asics rock a bring-back release but they've dug in the vaults and picked a retro-ready gem for us. The Asics Gel Respector is that model and if you don't remember it, prepare to get acquainted with its greatness.

The sneaker originally released in '91 sandwiched between the Gel-Lyte III and Gel-Lyte V and with two of the brand's most popular silhouettes as bookends, it's easy to get lost in the mix. Well, with one glance, this model is absolutely unforgettable with a construction that blends the best elements of its contemporaries in a very fresh way. To further sweeten the deal, the Gel Respector pops up in its OG colorway to make it even more historic.

As with most crazy runner releases, they're only available overseas at spots like Afew right now but you can expect to see them on shelves later this year.
