Steeped in history, it's the past few years that have seen the brand truly excel, thanks to collaborations with Brain Dead, Awake, Hal Studios, and, of course, a heavy hand from Kiko Kostadinov, both through his namesake brand and design studio.
With Dime, the simplicity that makes an ASICS silhouette such a desirable addition to everyday sneaker rotations is maintained, as all of its winning qualities are exemplified through fabrication and palette, resulting in one of the best-looking GT-2160s you'll have ever locked eyes on.
A marriage of several muted tones that build an effortless palette for the season, the GT-2160 by Dime features cream-toned overlays and Tiger stripe branding, while two different gradients dress both the midsole and mesh base. Touches of silver that have become synonymous with ASICS are layered throughout the shoe, highlighting key details such as the Dime branding.
