This one's for the records. The EX89 MT sneaker blends the heritage influences of the GEL-EXTREME basketball shoe from 1989 with modern cushioning properties.

It was originally created by Toshikazu KAYANOin the late 1980s as his first design project with ASICS. Its original high-top design was reworked with a mid-cut construction and color palettes that resemble an aged vintage look..

We updated the cushioning system with our FF BLAST technology. It's met with a sculpted heel shape to improve underfoot comfort during everyday scenarios.

The outsole’s pattern is meant to mirror the view of a city from the sky. This functional grip feature was initially inspired by the designer’s first business trip to the United States in 1987.
