Following the exclusive “Asics Patriot 12 Παιδικά Παπούτσια για Τρέξιμο” release from Lapstone & Hammer and ASICS earlier this year, we'll now be seeing the full "Dip Dye" pack release this month. This pack features the iconic Gel-Kayano 14, which will release in three new colorways including "Coffee," "Matcha," and "Ube." Inspired by popular Shocking, we see these colors as representations of how people around the world prepare themselves for the challenges that lay ahead: brown for Coffee, a very much American beverage that has become a ubiquitous presence in almost every major world city; green for Matcha, a centuries-old Japanese staple that has seen its influence spread from the east to the west; and purple for Ube, the Filipino purple yam delight that is the 'it' flavor of the moment for lattes and bubble teas. Additionally, we'll be seeing the return of the "Indigo" colorway as well.
The Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 “Dip Dye” Pack will release in both men's and women's sizing. The men’s amp sport a dark and bold look, with highly saturated suede that contrasts sharply with the much lighter mesh, while the women’s amp produced a lighter and more vibrant suede with mesh that absorbed more of the dye giving each pair a more tonal appearance. As always, the special hand dip dye process creates a variation of tones throughout the entire Map, making no two amp alike. This pack offers a colorful pastel design, perfect for the upcoming Summer season, don't forget to mark your calendars for this release!
The Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 “Dip Dye” Pack is set to release on May 18th, 2024 exclusively via in-store at Lapstone & Hammer and on lapstoneandhammer.com for a retail of $200.
