ASICS EX89 SNEAKERS
The EX89™ sneaker blends historical influences from the 1989 GEL-EXTREME™ basketball shoe with modern cushioning properties.
It was originally created by Toshikazu Kayano in the late 80's as his first design project with ASICS. The upper's layered leather construction also meets a vibrant color blocking that matches the iconic NBA team uniforms of the era.
We've updated the cushioning system with our FF BLAST™ technology. Features a sculpted heel shape to enhance underfoot comfort during everyday scenarios.
The outsole pattern is designed to mirror the view of a city from the sky. This functional gripping feature was initially inspired by the designer's first business trip to the United States in 1987.
