Combining breathable mesh construction with layered synthetic overlays, the silhouette reflects ASICS’ longstanding commitment to innovation, comfort, and functional design.
Overview
Constructed with a breathable white mesh upper, the ASICS Gel-Kayano 12.1 'White / Graphite Grey' features contrasting graphite grey overlays that create depth and structure throughout the silhouette.
