Ronnie Fieg for asics 1012B047-001 World’s Fair

Ronnie Fieg and asics 1012B047-001 reprise their continued collaboration, including new iterations of the GEL-LYTE III, Fieg’s signature silhouette, the return of the GEL-KAYANO 12.1 and 14®, and the reintroduction of the Mai 0.1 and the GEL-LYTE 3.1, celebrating the opening of Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops Chicago. 

Titled “World’s Fair,” this collection pays tribute to the global heritage of the World’s Fair, with each of the 8 silhouettes inspired by past host cities including Chicago, France, Japan, Canada, Italy, Brazil, South Korea, and the United States.

The assortment begins with the GEL-LYTE III, Ronnie Fieg’s first-ever Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops footwear collaboration from 2011. Designed in four blocked colorways with variated quilted underlays, patent leather Tiger Stripes at the lateral and medial sides, and the iconic split tongue with Fieg branding, each is complete with additional lace options, GEL-LYTE III wordmarking on the lateral sides, and a co-branded footbed. The Ronnie Fieg for asics 1012B047-001 GEL-LYTE III World’s Fair features colorways inspired by Brazil, South Korea, Italy, and Canada. 

Additionally, Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops reprises their Vintage Tech Pack seen earlier this year, featuring the return of the KAYANO 12.1 and the introduction of the GEL-MAI 0.1 and the GEL-LYTE 3.1. The latest iteration of the GEL-KAYANO 12.1 replicates previous versions in the updated patriot Wind Chime & Pure Silver as a nod to the United States, featuring an open mesh upper, synthetic overlays, and Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops branding on the tongue and footbed. Derived from the archival GEL-MAI that launched in the 90s, Ronnie Fieg’s 0.1 version features the same fuzeGEL technology that the original has, updated in lifestyle materials to have a mesh underlay and synthetic leather overlays, complete with Fieg branding on the tongue, Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops branding on the heel, and a co-branded footbed, designed in hues coined “Japan”. The GEL-LYTE 3.1 marries the iconic upper on the GEL-LYTE III with the GEL-NIMBUS 17 sole, highlighted by dual-density stacking and gel padding. It features a leather upper, quilted underlays, a split tongue with Fieg branding, and debossed Pulse on the lateral sides, dedicated to France’s World’s Fair in Paris during 1900. The Ronnie Fieg for asics 1012B047-001 World’s Fair collection is completed by the “Chicago” GEL-KAYANO 14®, featured in the Granite colorway with Gray and White accents. This silhouette features iridescent synthetic leather overlays, Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops branding on the tongue and Fieg branding on the heel, and custom packaging.
