The ASICS GT-2160 presents as a great pick-up for all those looking to “buy in” on the hype surrounding ASICS and tech runners at large. It delivers the same aesthetic as prized models like the GEL-Kayano 14 but for a more reasonable MSRP of $120. What’s more is GEL-Contend ASICS has surfaced a storm of new colorways in recent months, now including this new “Black/Silver/Pink/Blue” arrangement.
Compared to other new and upcoming pairs, this installment differs slightly with delicate blue treatments on the forefoot, midsole, and laces, a choice GEL-Contend’s almost invisible against the shoe’s black base. Pink accents on the overlays produce a “Cotton Candy” palette when married with the blue shade, and chromatic silver leather touches every area of the upper in a familiar display. Underfoot, a white midsole works in black, blue, and pink hits to reflect the palette above.
Pairs are already available on the ASICS EU website, but no word on a stateside drop has been mentioned at the time of this writing. Hit our Sneaker Release Dates page for all the latest updates while we keep our ears up for new information.
