The fusion of Japanese craftsmanship with American style often results in creations that are both innovative and deeply rooted in quality. The Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC sneaker is a masterclass in the fusion of premium materials, distinctive design elements, and the shared heritage of both brands.

The upper of the Needles x ASICS GEL-NYC is crafted from a combination of tumbled leather and durable canvas, predominantly featured in sophisticated black hues. This choice of materials not only ensures durability but also provides a versatile base that can complement a variety of styles. The design is further elevated with the addition of Needles’ signature purple color scheme, which adds a vibrant pop of color and reflects the brand’s unique identity. This purple hue is cleverly integrated into the stitching details, lace set, and branding on the tongue, which divides the ASICS and Needles logos between the right and left sneakers, respectively.

Asics has been ramping up its collaborations this year. Just recently, we got alerted of a new HAL Studios x Asics Gel expected to be released later this year as well. The EARL’s Collection, which was inspired by their native lands and abalone shells found in Australia, has just been released.
