Accented with royal purple details along the double-stitching, laces, branding on the midfoot and on the sole, the Needles x ASICS Gel-NYC ‘Black’ (1201B008-001) is an otherwise all-black colorway. Adding a unique touch to the design are the purple butterflies on the heels.

Incorporating design details from the 2000s' archive, the upper is inspired by GEL-NIMBUS 3 and MC-PLUS V models. The sneaker's finish is also inspired by the GEL-CUMULUS-16, giving it a retro vibe.

Enhanced by lightweight foam inserts, GEL technology provides exceptional comfort in the forefoot and rearfoot.
