ASICS x SHUSHU/TONG Gel-Kinetic Fluent - "Soft yet strong, structured yet romantic"

ASICS SportStyle continues its collaboration with SHUSHU/TONG, returning with a fresh take on the GEL-KINETIC Fluent. The silhouette blends feminine design codes with a modern, playful lightness.

The brand’s iconic bow motif is reinterpreted, appearing soft yet powerful, mirroring the evolution of the SHUSHU/TONG aesthetic from rebellious to refined.

For SHUSHU/TONG, the bow has never been a conventional feminine trope.

It stands for diversity, freedom and modern femininity. In this collaboration, it appears as an oversized, multi-layered 3D detail that defines the entire upper and becomes the visual focal point.

The look feels romantic, while still expressing a clear and confident attitude.

The tension emerges from the interplay between the expressive bow and the technical foundation of the ASICS GEL-KINETIC Fluent. What begins as a delicate accent ultimately turns into a powerful statement.

The SHUSHU/TONG x ASICS GEL-KINETIC Fluent integrates the oversized bow element directly into the lacing system, and a 3D-embossed SHUSHU/TONG signature sits on the tongue.

The Red/Black colorway pairs suede, leather and mesh, creating a distinct visual tension with the side ASICS Stripes through its contrasting materials.

A vivid red hue on the heel adds an immediate focal point. The Silver version relies on expansive metallic leather that blends modern elegance with futuristic design codes.

Technically, the Fluent draws on elements of the GEL-KINSEI 4. A structured forefoot provides flexibility and a smooth, dynamic roll. The FF BLAST PLUS midsole combines GEL technology and foam to deliver strong cushioning and energy return.

Thanks to its 3D geometry, SCUTOID GEL in the heel provides a natural feel throughout the day. The result is a balance of modern lightness and performance, shaped by the distinctive, feminine SHUSHU/TONG attitude.

The ASICS x SHUSHU/TONG GEL-KINETIC Fluent will be released on December 5 and will then be available at the following retailers: AFEW, Asphaltgold, BSTN and SUPPA.
