Los Angeles-based apparel brand PLEASURES has found a new partner for footwear collaborations, teaming up with Asics to launch their debut offerings this Fall. Featuring a unique take on the GEL-Lyte III, coming soon.

PLEASURES has teamed up with a number of sneaker brands in recent years, delivering a number of projects from brands like Reebok, adidas, Crocs, and Doc Martens. This year, the Los Angeles-based brand is teaming up with a new partner to take their footwear in a fresh direction. Enter Asics, the legendary Japanese running brand, and their classic GEL-Lyte III silhouette. This week, early images of the PLEASURES version surfaced online, showing off a clean green and grey colorway of the retro runner. Beginning with an off-white mesh base layer, the new look adds cement grey suede overlays, each one outlined with forest green piping. The Asics logo comes in black leather, while cream white laces and midsoles complete the look.
