The ASICS Tiger is the latest sport luxury line from ASICS, which is dropping their first set of releases with the “Crane & Turtle” collection. The shoes are inspired by an old Japanese proverb, “Tsuru Sen-Nen, Kame Man-Nen” translates to “Crane lives for 1,000 years; Turtle lives for 10,000 years.” In Japanese culture Cranes and Turtles are the symbols of long life and longevity.
The ASICS Tiger Crane & Turtle use the ASICS Gel Lyte III silhouette for both models that feature suede uppers, custom sock liners made with crane feathers, and a turtle shell pattern printed on the insole. The Crane pairs sports Bright Red, White and Grey, while the Turtle dons a softer Tan, Green and Yellow combination.
Look for the ASICS Tiger Crane & Turtle to release soon to retailers through ASICS Tiger’s website and other select retailers.
