A new sneaker collaboration between Asics and Dime is releasing soon.
The Montreal-based skateboarding label shared a video teaser of its upcoming project with the athletic brand on Instagram yesterday that was simply captioned “Dime x @asics_sportstyle 👟👀🔜.”
According to the Asics launch calendar, the forthcoming project involves the GT-2160 sneaker that’s inspired by the Asics running sneakers in the early 2010s and will release before the month’s end. Dime’s version of the running sneaker dons a gradient color scheme on the mesh-based upper, with dark gray on the heel that fades to an off-white makeup at the forefoot. The sneaker also features cream overlay panels at the midfoot, gray stripe details, and “Dime” branding stamped on the heel counter. Completing the look is a multicolored “Gel” midsole and a gray rubber outsole.
“The GT-2160 sneaker pays homage to the technical design language from the GT-2000 series in the early 2010s. Part of the ‘Winter Garden’ Pack, this design features printed mesh panels that are rendered with a vibrant floral print. This rendition keeps the heritage trainer’s iconic design language intact, preserving key features like its sleek aesthetic and wavy forefoot sculpting,” Asics wrote for the product description.
