J.Crew’s panel of design experts are no strangers to investing their extensive time and effort into bettering - or should we say harmonising - that illustrious middle-ground between premium menswear and sporting mastery.
We’ve seen New Balance time and time again, Nike on the occasion and an assortment of recognisable ASICS variations cementing the Japanese sportswear brand’s seat at an ever growing industry table.
For this instalment, we’ll touch briefly upon @jcrew’s ASICS Gel Lyte III collaboration, fittingly named ‘Ribbon Blue’ in homage to an immersive navy suede upper. Without breaking stride, this ageless ‘90s model was elevated through injections of tonal grey details, working effortlessly in housing ankle-hugging terry sock liners.
It’s presence was announced in 2015, launching alongside an ‘EVERGREEN’ iteration that drew minimal similarities from its counterpart beyond a trifecta of components: premium materials, tones complimentary of J.Crew’s clean aesthetic and of course - ASICS’ split tongue game changer.
