The fusion of high fashion and sneaker culture is an art, with designer Cecilie Bahnsen's stamp on Asics' classic GT-2160 being the most recent testimony. While Bahnsen's ethereal aesthetic has consistently enchanted the runways, her venture into sneaker territory has generated much anticipation. As Asics' GT-2160 remains a staple in the brand's lineup, Bahnsen's touch only amplifies its allure, especially following her previous successful floral makeovers.
The upcoming Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics GT-2160 Pack paints a picture of elegant finesse. The Blue variant presents an avant-garde approach, abandoning traditional laces for two prominent lockdown straps embellished with floral charms. Its framework showcases a subtle grey mesh juxtaposed with navy, silver, and black motifs. Notably, the sneaker integrates a TPU film around its upper edge and sole, adding a modern twist. In contrast, the Pink version exudes femininity with a floral-shaped patent leather strap elegantly resting atop the tongue. An additional short lace set graces the vamp, complemented by pink floral charms embellishing the toe area. Its underlying mesh layer gleams in pristine white. While the Pink sneaker sits atop a radiant red foam sole, its Blue counterpart adopts a navy shade. Both designs culminate with a matching rubber outsole, ensuring durability without compromising style.
The Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics GT-2160 Pack will release November 15, 2023, through Cecilie Bahnsen's website and on November 22 via global retailers. These exquisite pairs, available in women’s sizing, carry a retail price of $232.
