However, it is the bright aqua color that dominates the upper that catches your eye. The qua color is broken up into thre different shades and each is highlighted by the associated materials. A taste of white is thrown in beneath the aqua on the Asics logo as well as the Gel branding on the midsole. The lining is all grey which helps strike a delicate balance between the three shades on qua on the shoe. As they are only a sample, they will not make it to production.

Inspired by the concept of a world where cats are bigger than humans or the asics shoes running basic idea of a jungle cat the creative partners of StudioAnti and Washio Tomoyuki both put their individual spin on the sneaker.
