AWAKE NY has been crafting covetable sneaker collaborations for quite a few years now, from a set of GEL-Kayano 5 360s to a wide range of Reebok classics. And following quite a few months since their last effort, the streetwear label is rejoining ASICS for a trio of GEL-LYTE III colorways.
Similar to their previous work with the Japanese footwear brand, the AWAKE name is printed right onto the heel of all three GEL-LYTE IIIs. In addition, Angelo Baque and team have played around with the shoe’s Tiger Stripe, rendering it entirely see-through. What’s more, a dark netting has been inserted across the mid-panel as well as just under the heel tab, the latter of which sports a silver metallic finish on each colorway. Elsewhere, though, the pairs differ across their suede overlays and nylon base, opting for either Tan and Blue, Purple and Black, or Green and Cream palettes.
For a closer look at the entire collection, check out the retailer-provided imagery below. These are reportedly set to drop in just a few days through select storefronts; an ASICS release date, however, has yet to be confirmed, though it’s likely one will be announced soon.
In other news, an Undefeated Air Force 1 is in the works.
UPDATE 8/15/2022:
Angelo Baque has unveiled a forth colorway of the upcoming Awake NY x ASICS GEL-LYTE III.
