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 β inspired by Story mfg.'s preference for natural colors and textures.

The design combines the rhythm of nature and individual forms of expression β 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 β 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.
