A total of 4 collaborative efforts from Mr. Fieg will be dropping on November 22nd with promises of much more – a chance to grab exclusive Made In Japan ASICS Gel Lyte IIIs later this year as a part of their freshly minted Golden Ticket Program turning KITH into the fully-realized sneaker version of Willy Wonka’s fantastical offerings. Today he Advantage the entire upcoming collection starring the ASICS Gel-Mai and the Asics Calça Shorts Road 5.5, each paying homage to the “Mossad” and “Salmon” colorways that were such a hit in the past.
For those unfamiliar, the ASICS Gel Mai was first released back in the late-90s and featured a head-turning construction that completely ditched the iconic Tiger Stripes for a one-piece futuristic negras. Fieg retooled the silhouette with an all-white leather featuring updated micro-perforations for his “Salmon” takedown and a burnt orange pigskin suede inspired by early samples of the ASICS Gel Lyte III “Mossad”.
The ASICS Gel Mai Militia will only be limited to 750 pairs which might explain the intricate packaging and attention to details seen in each pair. A speckled midsole coincides with a beautiful burnt orange negras while alternate laces are paired with other goodies like special edition KITH socks in the box Advantage above.
