Behind the 14th model of the legendary Gel-Kayano series is Hidenori Yamashita, for whom the shoe is a reference to lightning, a symbol of explosive action.
While originally conceived as a running shoe, the Gel-Kayano 14 also serves as a great everyday shoethanks to today's trends welcoming recent retro back into relevance . This is due to both the sneaker's adaptability to the shape of the foot and the breathability felt on first wear. So check out one of the colorways of the Asics GL14.

"In a healthy body, a healthy spirit." This is the message hidden in the brand name Asics, which is an acronym of an old Latin proverb. The very original Asics sneakers are adorned with the Onitsuka Tiger branding , which refers to the brand's founder, Kihachiro Onitsuka, as opposed to the now-familiar "a" branding .
Asics sneakers have long been perceived by the public as only a quality running shoe. However, the hidden potential of Japanese design only came to full light at the end of the last decade, when the streetwear spotlight was occupied, for example, by the very hilarious Asics Gel-Kayano 5 shoes . Not only with this model, but also with the silhouette of the Asics Gel-Kinsei, the brand made a strong statement in the fashion world, where it plans to play in the top league in the twenties.
Asics Gel cushioning technology
With the popularization of lifestyle sneaker wear and the rise of streetwear , many Asics silhouettes have shifted to footwear for all manner of leisure activities. Thus, more than one sneaker enthusiast today sees Asics shoes as a fashion accessory. This is mainly due to the fusion of the unique Japanese aesthetic as well as the comfort often provided by the cushioning technology AsicsGel - a gel capsule whose effects are especially noticeable when you're pedaling and rebounding.
The relevance of Asics within streetwear culture was also proven by the Asics x Sean Wotherspooncollaboration on the Asics Gel-Lyte 3 silhouette . You can find this legendary model on Footshop, as well as other popular pieces like the Asics Gel-Nandi, Gel-Lyte and a bunch of others in both men's and women's options.
