Gel-Lyte III Gets An Anniversary Makeover

In the run up to the 25th anniversary of its Gel-Lyte III trainer model, activewear brand Asics has teamed up with American retailer Packer on a limited edition trainer. The ‘Dirty Buck’ pack draws inspiration from the classic dress shoe of the same name – a taupe-coloured Derby silhouette with a muted red sole. Retaining the original Gel-Lyte III detailing, including tonal side markings and rubber accents, the trainers feature premium suede uppers and an attention-grabbing red brick midsole unit, mimicking the infamous shoe. Completing the collaborative design is dual Asics and Parker branding, appearing on the sole and embossed on the heel respectively. Look out for the Asics x Packer Dirty Buck pack when it launches worldwide on 7 March, available at Hanon, END Clothing and Wellgosh for £120.
