GEL-LYTE V CUTTING ROOM FLOOR
The GEL-LYTE V RE:MATERIAL sneaker draws inspiration from the idea of discarding contents from a cutting room floor and using them to create something new.
This shoe's original upper design process focused on combining features from different sketches that had previously been thrown away by other ASICS designers. We adopted a similar approach for this style by using mixed leathers, nubucks, and suedes to create the upper.
The tooling retains its wavy design from when it first hit the running market in 1993. Only this time, we've revamped the midsole's construction by using at least 20% recycled materials to support more sustainable manufacturing.
