ASICS and Story mfg. present the GEL-VENTURE 6 — a fresh take on the classic ASICS silhouette and an homage to hobbies, nature and the art of doing things slowly.

The collab celebrates hiking trips, picnics, handicrafts and all the little hobbies that you don't do for efficiency reasons, but simply because they're fun.

The GEL-VENTURE 6 comes in two characteristic gingham colorways: an earthy shade of brown and a combination of lilac and ecru — inspired by Story mfg.'s preference for natural colors and textures.

Recycled and carefully selected materials are used for each pair — a clear statement of sustainability that unites both brands.

A sneaker for quiet hours, long walks and all the detours you like to take when you're not in a hurry.

The design combines the rhythm of nature and individual forms of expression — with woven laces that tell a personal story: Saeed, co-founder of Story mfg., remembers skaters from his youth in Baghdad who laced their shoes creatively.

This memory became a design detail — and each pair comes with two different sets of laces so everyone can create their own style.
The Story mfg. x ASICS GEL-VENTURE 6 will be released on April 18 and will then be available at the following retailers: AFEW Store, Asphaltgold and VooStore.
