To commemorate their 70th anniversary, Japanese jewelry brand TASAKI has partnered with ASICS to create an extravagant take on the latter’s GT-2160 footwear model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Utilizing a clean white and cream color scheme as the foundation, TASAKI embellishes the footwear with Akoya pearls in various styles, drawing inspiration from their “Balance” and “Danger” collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Available in both signature and luxury line editions, each are distinguished by their unique features. The former boasts a single row of pearls and an 18K gold-plated silver bar, while the latter features multi-layered pearls paired with an 18K yellow gold bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, a premium offering comes in the form of the “Pearl Sequence” sneaker, which features over 1,000 Akoya pearls and categorized by the jewelry brand as part of their “art piece” line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While exuding luxury, the TASAKI x ASICS collection does come with a steep price range. Expect to shell out between 165,000 JPY to 4,411,000 JPY (~US$1,088 to US$29,067) for a pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you’re still eager to get your hands on a pair, they’ll be available at TASAKI’s “FLOATING SHELL” exhibition in Omotesando, Tokyo, running from 26 April to 12 May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
