With 2000s mesh runners still the craze, brands like Asics are reaping the benefits. The Asics Gel-Kayano 14 has been one of the most desired silhouettes for everyday use. Colorways sell out, whether a collaboration or a general release. Now, Asics has just unleashed a pair perfect for summer and sure to quench your thirst.
While it has no ties with the soft drink brand, the similarities to colors and inspiration are uncanny. Coming in a clean white and lime green, the Asics Gel-Kayano 14 Sprite features traditional 00s construction, complete with mesh underlays and synthetic overlays. Most of the sneaker is covered in white and silver, with royal blue and lime green accents, furthering the theme. A Gel-cushioned midsole and solid rubber outsole provide the comfort you need for all-day wear.
The Asics Gel-Kayano 14 Sprite is available now at Asics after releasing at select retailers throughout June 2025. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is $150.
