What is ASICS?
Taking it back, Kihachiro Onitsuka founded Onitsuka Co. in Japan 1949. He had a great understanding that movement is not only related to physical health but to mental equilibrium as well. Moving forward a year to 1950, ASICS came out of the gates with an innovative idea for basketball sneakers featuring a suction cup-like grip outsole technology resembling and inspired by an octopus’ flexibility and quickness of movements.
Around the end of the ’60s, ASICS started making impacts worldwide. The famous Mexico Line – revealed during the 1968 Mexico Games – Onitsuka Tiger Corsairs, fashionable yet useful, were gaining popularity. Gold medals were being won by athletes in ASICS, showing that they are not only for display but also excellent for performance.
Through the years, ASICS has continued to bring new ideas and improving those ideas. They set up the ASICS Institute of Sport Science and introduced revolutionary shoe technologies such as METARACER™ and METASPEED™ series.
History aside, let’s get into some more iconic kicks. The Gel-Lyte III? A certified classic in sneaker history that was released in the early ’90s and caused an uproar because of its game-changing design. Additionally, there’s the GEL-1130. It’s more than simply a sneaker; it’s also an indication for those who are truly committed to running.
One thing about ASICS is they know how to mix functionality and fashion, causing ripples in all areas – on or off track alike.
