Duo Asics GT-II « Goraiko »

The Japanese brand ASICS continues to celebrate the 35 years of the GT-II silhouette by offering it in 2 new colorways. After the release of the first 2 Anniversary versions in mid-July (article available HERE), a pack named « Goraiko » is proposed to us.

This silhouette was launched in 1986 and takes its name from the exceptional « Gran Turismo » sports cars. Inspired by the high-end qualities of these cars, Asics designed a runner that combines style and comfort.

The « Goraiko » pack refers to the sunrise over Mount Fuji and the walking sticks that travelers use to climb the mountain.

This new GT-II is available in 2 colorways : Azure/Smoke Blue and a Light Apricot/Azure. It consists of a premium perforated suede upper in blue or apricot beige respectively with matching smooth soft suede overlays. To affirm the design inspiration, the heel and insole are adorned with a special Mount Fuji logo. On both iterations, the inner lining, tongue logo patch, heel clip and midsole appear in white.

The blue version is complemented by the iconic Tiger Stripes in silver/white, while they are presented in hard blue/sky blue on the Apricot Beige iteration. The sole features asics signature GEL technology cushioning and the outsoles are two-tone, white and blue for the Blue pair, and white and apricot for the Apricot version.

The Asics GT-II « Goraiko » duo is available since July 30, 2021 at select retailers such as AFEW store, 43Einhalb and FootDistrict and on asics.com. The price is set at 120$ per iteration. Don’t sleep !
