Following a collaboration earlier this year, Amsterdam-based fashion brand KASSL Editions presents its second project with ASICS, merging both brands’ core values by dipping the original GEL NIMBUS 9 model in rubber drip and giving it the same treatment as one of its iconic coats. As a result, the archetypical and timeless ASICS shoe receives KASSL Editions’ recurring high-gloss characteristic that’s fully in line with its outerwear collection. The KASSL Editions and ASICS special project comprise of only 150 hand-crafted pairs of GEL-NIMBUS 9 sneakers. The recently brought back into range lifestyle iteration of a running icon has just launched and will be exclusively at revered shopping emporium Dover Street Market in London. Residing elsewhere? No worries, the trophies are also available online at both the Dover Street Market website and KASSL Editions website.
Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
