It may not be the most hyped collaboration on the market, but the work Bulgarian designer Kiko Kostadinov has done with the team at Asics over the past few years has been some of the best in footwear, and his latest collection continues the trend.
The Kiko Kostadinov x Asics UB13-S Gel-SD Lyte Pack follows the UB12-S Gel-SD Lyte Pack from Kiko and Asics last year, which brought back the Gel-SD Lyte in three pairs. This pack adds three more Gel-SD Lyte colorways, under the UB13-S banner, blending a gradient mix in tan and orange, yellow and green, and brown and blue.

The standout pair from the pack is another one of Kiko’s bright colorways, starting with a bright yellow structure, teal accents on the lace panel, sockliner, and more, and a gold-to-grey gradient moving across the toebox, side panels, and heel. The subtle color shift on the brown and blue pair is also a hit for anyone who prefers darker tones.
The Kiko Kostadinov x Asics UB13-S Gel-SD Lyte Pack will be released April 2, 2026 through Asics and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price on the pairs is still TBD. For all the latest Asics collab news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
