Philly’s Lapstone & Hammer has always had a deep love affair with indigo dye. It all started with their Champion hoodies, and now, they’re diving headfirst into footwear with the LAPSTONE INDIGO 2024 project.

They handpicked the iconic ASICS GEL-NYC and GEL-1130 for their unique ability to soak up the indigo dye. Each pair emerges from the vat an individual masterpiece, boasting its own captivating shade of blue. The interplay of buttery suede and breathable mesh adds another layer of visual intrigue, enhancing the classic lines of these Y2K-era runners.

Only 100 pairs are in the Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS “Indigo” pack so if you’re intrigued, look out for them come 3 February at the Philly label’s brick-and-click stores for US$180 (GEL-NYC) and US$160 (GEL-1130).
