ASICS is pleased to announce a nature-inspired collaboration with the Los Angeles-based lifestyle brand, PLEASURES.

The goal for ASICS and PLEASURES was to create a dynamic sensory experience inspired by naturally occurring wonders and textures. With that goal in mind, PLEASURES tapped longtime partner, Shelby Kay Reed, to help lead this third collaborative project between the two brands.

Its upper construction of the GEL-NYC references the GEL-NIMBUS™ 3 shoe from the early 2000s and blends it with various embellishments from the GEL-MC PLUS™ V design.​

The tooling contrasts the upper's retro influences by using the GEL-CUMULUS™ 16 shoe's tooling system. Through a combination of lightweight foams and GEL™ technology inserts, this midsole formation helps create advanced underfoot comfort.

• Upper is inspired by the GEL-NIMBUS™ 3 and GEL-MC PLUS™ V shoes
• GEL-CUMULUS™ 16 tooling
• Rearfoot and forefoot GEL™ technology for comfort in everyday scenarios
