Asics x Onitsuka Tiger X Offspring ‘Desert Pack’

Posted on by bythelevel

 

Onitsuka Tiger and Asics link up with UK based sneaker boutique Offspring to present a desert-inspired collaboration pack.

The subject of previous high profile collaborations, the Gel Lyte V undergoes its latest rework as a desert sand colour way is applied, along with blue, rich burgundy and camel  to reflect a post sunset skyline. Arriving with a premium suede upper, additional features include a part speckled midsole and Offspring branding on the insole (included on both pairs). Meanwhile Onitsuka Tiger’s sleek Shaw Runner silhouette has received an all over navy colour treatment on the durable mesh and suede upper. The shoe sits on top of a white speckled midsole and includes tropical-green detailing on the eyelets and branding, taking cues from a cold, atmospheric night in the desert.

Adding something special to the release, the brands have linked up with SayDuck to reveal the sneakers. All you have to do is download the app via iTunes or Google Play and scan it over the marker below to view 3D images of the shoes and get a closer look at the release.

Posted on by bythelevel

 

Following lasts months ‘Sahara’ and ‘Inner City’ releases from the Wilderness Pack’s first drop, PUMA and Size? return to give two more silhouettes a re-work inspired by the harsh terrain of the jungle and the mountains.

The popular Blaze of Glory model takes cues from the Amazonian Jungle as it pays homage to the dense, overgrown forestation and its inhabitants. The forest green mesh, suede and rubbery leather mix upper sits on top of a speckled midsole and is finished with bright pink heel wrap detailing designed to warn off predators. With the forests humidity in mind, the shoe provides breathability, as well as sheltering the foot from downpours.

The Disc-Blaze is designed for endurance and durability, built to tackle harsh mountainous conditions. Again the speckled midsole is applied, whilst the upper is made from a heavy wax canvas, and includes an ice green cage unit and brown outer sole.

Drop 2 of the Wilderness Pack will be available at size? from August the 2nd and will be available worldwide from September the 6th.
