Japanese brand, BAPE® re-imagines the heritage design of the GEL-1090™ trainer with details that are reminiscent of the Harajuku scene in the early 2000s.
Familiar features from the GEL-1090™ trainer's original construction include the tiger claw marks on the toe overlays and heel counter. Meanwhile, the underlays and sockliner are updated with A Bathing Ape's eponymous cloud camo pattern.
This shoe's medial panels are offset with the BAPE shark icon that's synonymous with the designs painted on the nose of fighter jets. Additionally, the ASICS Spiral on the tongue and heel has been converted into a tiger caricature as a nod to one of our brand's historic logos.
Returning with its 2000s performance running aesthetic, the GEL-1090™ trainer retains key details, like the GEL™ technology unit to provide advanced cushioning.
