Streetwear brand and retailer Alife and athletic brand Asics have teamed up for an NYC-themed collection, paying homage to the upcoming NYC Marathon, with two shoes: a classic running favorite and a current performance runner.
The Alife x Asics Gel-Kayano Trainer and Gel-Kayano 22 will be available Oct. 30 at the Alife NYC location and on its e-commerce website, aliferivingtonclub.com. Retail prices for the shoes have not yet been released.
The Gel-Kayano Trainer features a perforated pigskin and mesh with reflective 3M accents and underlay. The Gel-Kayano 22 boasts the brand’s seamless FluidFit upper with reflective 3M accents and underlay. Both shoes use gray mesh for the uppers; a red, white and blue midsole; and a classic gum outsole.
