ASICS continues to swerve between performance and lifestyle, offering a cool mix of marathon running sneakers and futuristic, fashion-forward collaborations. One such design that's bridged the gap between both spaces has been the GEL-1130, a budget-friendly sneaker that's recently launched in a 'Cream/Blueberry' colorway.
Although a relic of the past, the ASICS GEL-1130 has found new life over the last year. Some folks might use it for their gym sessions, but the silhouette is far removed from its running origins. Construction and technology inspired by the sport continue to benefit the sneaker, however, delivering a breathable and comfortable package. 'Metallic Silver' panels throughout the upper position the pair in the unshakeable Y2K trend. Shimmering 'Blueberry' flair adds another tally to the retro model's expansive roster of colorways. Off-white mesh bases round out the upper, while the GEL-assisted sole unit underfoot keeps things simple in white and grey.
The ASICS GEL-1130 "Blueberry" is currently available at FinishLine.com for $100. If you're on the fence, check out official photos of the pair below.
