asics’ Gel Lyte III is up their with the elite retro runners such as the Air Max 1. It’s one of the brands finest hours for sure, and shows no sign of disappearing anytime soon.

This mid-season release is nothing particularly new, but it’s a damn good triple release that keeps the Gel Lyte III in a solid position within the sneaker world. The colour palette’s a reminiscent of what you would expect of a retro Gel Lyte III, with some seriously vibrant tones being utilised. Materials such as suede, nylon and leather all get worked in to all three, with excellent results.

Look for these hitting the Crooked Tongues store early next week.
