Brand name
In 1949 Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka founded the ONITSUKA Shokai shoe brand. In the same way, the company carries out a reorganization, which led to a change in the company name: ONITSUKA CO., LTD. A few years later, the company will operate under the name we know today “ASICS”. This name is derived from the Latin expression “Anima Sana In Corpore Sano” (“You should pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body”).
In the early stages of the company, mainly basketball shoes were made. Later Asics also focused on other sports, such as football, tennis, and squash. This company also sponsors athletes and clubs within these sports. For example, they have a partnership with the football clubs Empoli, Genoa, Lecce, and Torino.
Iconic sneakers
Asics has released many iconic shoes over the years. We would like to highlight a few below.
Gel Lyte lll
Released in 1990, this model was a masterpiece by Japanese designer Shigeyuki Mitsui. At this time running shoes were often boring and simple, but this sneaker has changed that a lot. Due to the Alpha Gel cushioning system from Asics and the split tongue, the design and performance flow together into a wonderful sneaker.
The split tongue was really something unique within the sneaker world because it ensured that the tongue did not slide, but the side. This was a very big advantage, especially when running because it resulted in less friction. All this has made the Gel Lyte lll one of the best running shoes.
Gel Lyte speed
After the Gel Lyte lll, the Gel Lyte Speed was introduced in 1993. With the return of the split tongue and the introduction of new better materials, this top sneaker was created. This was the first sneaker to have synthetic suede blocked by premium leather. In addition, this shoe also featured unique nylon and mesh overlay constructions.
GT-II
With its first release in 1986, this was the first sneaker to incorporate Gel technology. This model is popular with a large audience because it has a simple silhouette. You can therefore wear this sneaker under any outfit. Now after thirty years, this sneaker is still in demand and many colorways and collaborations have already been released.
