Asics Gel Lyte III NS

Sleek and aerodynamic doesn’t really seem to have much in common with rugged durability until now. Asics has made one of their marquee models all four of those things with a mix of materials that have truly enhanced it’s build for the better.

The Asics Gel Lyte III NS blends form and function by taking the seamless approach for the front of the upper and blending it with overlaid panels in the back. The makes for a fusion welded nubuck and mesh toe with a carbon fiber heel which truly gives us the best of both worlds. This killer combo is made more deadly by the liberal use of black for it’s upper which gives the speckled midsole a bit more contrast than usual allowing it to shine even brighter.

The Asics Gel Lyte III NS is available now in limited quantities at select retailers including KITH NYC and Feature Sneaker boutique. If you are looking for a different color, Asics just dropped a red version at their online store for $120.
