Get ready—something special is coming in 2025! ASICS is bringing back some of its most iconic models in a fresh, modern way, all starting from Japan. This project is all about reimagining classic sneaker designs for today’s world while staying true to their original roots.
Leading the creative direction is none other than Shigeyuki Kunii, the mastermind behind mita sneakers. Kunii has played a huge role in shaping sneaker culture, working on everything from global collaborations to curating some of the best in-line sneaker releases in Japan. With this project, he’s diving deep into ASICS’ archives to bring back legendary silhouettes with a new-school twist.
One of the highlights of this revival is the GEL-YETI TOKYO HI—the latest addition to the line-up after the GEL-LYTE III. This model is based on an after-sport shoe from the TRANSCEND series, originally released in 2000. It was initially designed for trail runners to slip into after races, giving their feet a much-needed break. But over time, the shoe’s unique, functional silhouette caught the attention of sneakerheads and streetwear lovers, eventually evolving into a full-blown lifestyle sneaker in 2003.
For this second edition, the GEL-YETI TOKYO HI has been upgraded with thoughtful details that make it even more wearable. It now features shoelaces with stoppers for easy on and off, a cork insole for extra comfort, and GORE-TEX® technology to keep your feet dry, no matter the weather. Whether you’re braving rainy streets or just flexing your style, this shoe has you covered.
With its bold design and top-tier functionality, the mita sneakers x ASICS GEL-YETI TOKYO HI GTX “GORE-TEX” is a statement piece that blends sneaker heritage with everyday versatility. It’s the perfect mix of performance, style, and comfort—all wrapped up in one seriously cool package.
