The world of sneaker collaborations is witnessing an intriguing evolution, with Kiko Kostadinov at the forefront. Known for his distinct aesthetic that merges functionality with high-fashion sensibilities, Kostadinov's journey from an Asics collaborator to leading the brand's SportStyle category has been remarkable. In his latest venture, he brings together Asics and Heaven By Marc Jacobs for a collaboration that promises to push boundaries in sneaker design.
Tackling the Gel-Lokros silhouette, Marc Jacobs adds an attention-grabbing star pattern on the toe and a rubber extension from the outsole that curves up to the center of the toebox. The design also includes unique strap details integrated into the paneling, some adorned with a glittery finish, adding a touch of glam to the athletic profile. The sneaker sits atop a chunky, tonal midsole and outsole, enhancing the visual impact and promising comfort and durability. Three colorways will be offered, Vapor Cosmos, Graphite Grey, and Faded Denim.
The Kiko Kostadinov x Heaven By Marc Jacobs x Asics Gel-Lokros Collection W will release February 22, 2024, via Kiko Kostadinov's website while select retailers will release the pairs on March 7, 2024. Coming in women's sizing, retail is set at $195. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app for the latest updates on this release and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
