Comme Des Garçons, a brand synonymous with avant-garde fashion and innovative design, has consistently explored creative partnerships across the footwear industry, showcasing a penchant for blending high fashion with sportswear aesthetics. Asics, known for its dedication to performance and comfort, has emerged as a frequent collaborator with Comme Des Garçons, resulting in a series of memorable footwear collections that merge the distinct identities of both brands. The latest endeavor between Comme Des Garçons Homme Deux and Asics takes the low-top Japan S silhouette and reimagines it with an all-denim construction.
CDG’s take on the Asics Japan S Denim features dark blue denim covering every inch of its upper, from the overlays to the underlays, creating a cohesive, textured look that's stylish and durable. The use of frayed edges along each panel adds a layer of depth and distinction, allowing for each segment of the sneaker to stand out while contributing to an overall aesthetic that's edgy and refined. Co-branding is subtly incorporated, with the Asics and CDG Homme Deux logos appearing on the tongue tag and insole, signifying the collaborative spirit of this release. The design is completed with a crisp white midsole and outsole, contrasting the dark denim sharply.
The Comme Des Garçons Homme Deux x Asics Japan S Denim will release in 2024 through Dover Street Market and select retailers online and in-store. As of this writing, the retail price has not yet been announced.
