Kiko Kostadinov’s Asics US6-S Gel-Kinetic Fluent Pack Releases July 2025
Published
Asics’ SportStyle division has exploded in popularity over the last few years thanks to shifting trends and proper leadership. Helming the ship for Asics SportStyle is Kiko Kostadinov, the Bulgarian-born designer who is not only employed by the Japanese footwear brand but also a frequent collaborator via his eponymous studio. Next up for Kiko x Asics is a three-pack of Gel-Kinetic Fluent colorways coming under the US6-S banner.
For those unfamiliar, Kiko has produced a series of sneakers under different US(X)-S projects, US standing for Uniform Studios. These pairs are not new designs, as is common with direct Kiko x Asics releases, but they’re standard silhouettes reimagined through his studio’s lens. For the Gel-Kinetic Fluent, a model introduced at the start of 2025, Kiko has prepped three colorways: Black, Cream, and Red.

The archival running shoe-inspired silhouette, which borrows construction and technical elements from 2010s Ascis runners, comes with the same material makeup on all three colorways, which includes synthetic textured leather overlays, jersey mesh on the midfoot, tongue, and heel tab, and nylon pull tabs (a common feature added to Kiko’s US series). Down below sits a tonal midsole with Gel-Quantum pods in the heel and FF Blast foam in the forefoot.
The Kiko Kostadinov x Asics US6-S Gel-Kinetic Fluent Pack is currently listed for release on July 24, 2025, via multiple overseas retailers, so it’s likely this is the global drop date. As of now, retail pricing has not been confirmed. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on release info for Kiko’s latest Asics project and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
