Introducing the ASICS GEL-1090
The ASICS GEL-1090 was a standout in the brand’s early-2000s running lineup, embodying a design philosophy rooted in speed, movement, and motorsport-inspired aesthetics.
Its silhouette is characterised by sweeping midsole lines intended to resemble a waving checkered flag, along with bold graphic details such as 'tiger claw' marks on the toe and heel. The shoe features ASICS’ signature GEL cushioning (particularly in the heel) for effective shock absorption, complemented by a lightweight EVA midsole and a breathable mesh upper reinforced with synthetic overlays.
