GT-2160 NS – Black/Graphite Grey
With the amount of 2010s technical sneakers hitting the shelves of late you’d be correct to think that these are a decade-old model as well. Indeed the GT-2160â„¢ throws it back to the heyday of the GT-2000â„¢ series. The swooping technical uppers fit nicely within the ranks of Kiko Kostadinov’s releases and the Balenciaga Runners proliferating social media influencer timelines.
The midsole gets plenty of GEL, the jewel-like pods providing you with the sort of cushioning that’ll keep your feet happy after a long day hitting the pavement. We might be looking at shoes with 40mm+ stack heights but ASICS’ proven GEL technology still makes for one of the best all-day shoes on the market.
This updated ‘no-sew’ version ditches the traditional panels in-place of fused panels which smooths out the silhouette. The result is a decidedly more modern interpretation.
