The ASICS GEL-Lyte V Surfaces in "Matcha Green" for Spring
Though the ASICS GEL-Lyte V may not enjoy the same widespread popularity as its sister siblings, it does hold a special place within the sneaker community — namely those in Japan and the streetwear-savvy around the globe. With the spotlight often fixed on the GEL-Lytie III, it’s easy for colorways like this GEL-Lyte V "Matcha Green" to slip under the radar; Especially when it’s delivered in understated elegance.
Clad in shades of yellow-green, the pair opts for a mostly tonal look, making a statement through its material choices and top-shelf finishes. A textured fabric adorns the toe tip and large portions of the mid-foot and heel areas.
Underfoot, the GEL-infused foam midsole complements the upper's yellow hue. The outsoles, however, diverge from the top half, completing the GEL-Lyte V with a gum-brown makeover that's a perfect fit for the spring/summer season.
Take a look at the official photos of the pair while you await details on the global ASICS.com launch.
