ASICS Autumn

Here we are deep in the Autumn season and the time has come to re-think what kicks we’re rockin’. Clearly Vans can take the crown forthe sneaker of choice for both Spring & Summer, but ASICS are positioned to take Autumn by storm!

If you’ve been wearing Vans for the last couple of years the commercial rise of the brand cannot have escaped you……….and I’ve seen that particular fact frustrating a number of customers recently.
Everyone’s been wearing Vans, and if you want to remain ahead of the crowd you might need to starting thinking about a new brand – enter stage left Asics!

If you’ve been wearing the Vans Authentic or Vans Era you’ll know that durability could be a maximum of 6 weeks before they are well and truly wrecked and you may start getting sore feet after only a few hours.With the ASICS AAron you’ll notice an immediate improvement on both fronts. With ASICS performance heritage these are super comfortable whilst keeping that low profile look.

ASICS is a brand that has emerged from the shadows of Nike etc and is now 100% credible in the lifestyle market. The worlds BBOYing community are representing the brand because they look good and perform well on the dance floor. This is a massive endorsement from such a cool, trend shaping collective.

It’s time to embrace ASICS and enjoy their offerings!

If your looking for an alternative to the Nike Air Max family, or the adidas ZX range you should consider the ASICS Gel Lyte III or ASICS GT II. These are both premium silhouettes and really show the strength in depth in the ASICS range at the moment. Super comfortable with dope retro styling!

UK BBoy Championships World Finals

So, it’s official we’re the exclusive retailer for the UK BBoy Championship World Finals 2011 and  commercial partner to ASICS.

We’re totally stoked to get the opportunity to supply to such a large event, and ASICS is my (personal) favourite brand at the miniute…. When you see me in the store or pounding the streets of Newcastle I tend to be mainly wearing either the ASICS GT II or ASICS Gel Lyte III. They’re something totally fresh, there aren’t many stockists and if you love Nike Air Max 1′s these are the perfect alternative! Take a break from the old favourites, and try something from the ASICS range, seriously, they wont let you down.

Take a look at the snaps we took the other day.

ASICS GT II Red/White – UK BBOY Championships 2011

So here we are, just 2 weeks before the 2011 UK BBOY Championships World Final at Brixton Academy and we wanted to show you the key sneaker for this years event….ASICS GT II Red/White!

ASICS have come to the fore over the last 3 years in the international BBOY scene with the popularity of the ASICS GT II, Gel Lyte III and Aaron. All of these sneakers have true performance heritage, dope retro styling and great colour pops. The Gel Technology really helps dancers stay comfortable when they’ve got a long day battling ahead.

You’ll see from the below images that the ASICS GT II is a sweet looking silhouette. It’s got classic lines, and handles the colours really well. The tapered toe works really nicely, and they never look flat, or crease in the wrong place. They hold their shape, and still look fresh after 50 wears!
