Jovani Hernandez The “dad shoe” trend has been unshakable over the last handful of years. And while both sportswear and high fashion brands alike have created new product rooted in this aesthetic, some companies have had success visiting their archives.
ASICS has been able to repurpose several performance running sneakers from the early to mid-2000s, introducing modern audiences to designs like the GEL-Kayano 14. The ASICS GT-2160 has recently joined the fight, bringing the 12-year-old silhouette to the forefront of the “mesh runner” trend. An “Oyster Grey” and “Carbon” arrangement covers the entirety of the stability trainer’s latest take, further cementing the model within the “dad (or mom) shoe” trend. The budget-friendlier offering features an off white finish across its midsole, which injects an “aged” look into the sneaker. Together, each aforementioned component helps create an outfit sure to find its footing in the present-day.
