The ASICS Gel Kayano 5 OG, part of the 'Academic Scholar' collection, draws inspiration from the 90s school dress codes. This sneaker was launched in September 2019 and showcases a 'Chili Flake' jacquard mesh upper, complemented by synthetic detailing and a contrasting emblem adorning the sides. To ensure structural support, it features an external heel counter. The gold-tone eyelets and rope laces pay homage to traditional uniform shoes. Offering exceptional comfort and performance, the sneaker is equipped with a FlyteFoam midsole, integrated with Gel technology and high-abrasion outsole rubber.
