Above the Clouds x ASICS GT-2160: The Final Installment
Australian sneaker retailer Above the Clouds is back at it again with their ongoing collaboration with ASICS, and this time they’re taking it to new heights. The final installment of their GT-2160 series is set to drop this month, featuring two new colorways: “Black/Gunmetal” and “White/Pure Silver”. These minimalist designs highlight the transparent detailing and chromatic tiger stripes that have been a staple throughout the series.
Release Dates and Where to Buy
The first drop will be on August 23 at Above the Clouds, with a retail price of $152 USD for each pair. But don’t worry if you miss out, as there will be additional pairs available at select retailers on August 30 to conclude the project.
The Evolution of the GT-2160
Above the Clouds’ collaboration with ASICS has been centered around the GT-2160, and it’s been a journey to say the least. The duo first dropped a “Cream/Shamrock Green” colorway in October of last year, followed by a 2024 campaign featuring the shoe in three colorways. Now, the final two colorways are set to drop, completing the project.
A Closer Look at the Black and White Pairs
The “White/Pure Silver” pair features a white mesh and synthetic build with a semi-translucent section on the forefoot. Silver accents can be found on the sides, tongue, and heel branding. The “Black/Gunmetal” pair has a similar build, but with various shades of gray and black, and silver accents on the heel and tongue.
Stay Tuned for Updates
While no official release date has been announced, Above the Clouds and ASICS have hinted that the drop will happen sometime this year. Keep an eye out for updates and expect both pairs to be available at Above the Clouds, ASICS, and select retailers for a starting price of $167 USD. Don’t miss out on the final installment of this epic collaboration.
