Above The Clouds returns with a fresh collaboration alongside ASICS, this time shifting gears from their usual lifestyle-centric approach. Their latest project reimagines the GEL-QUANTUM 360 I, a silhouette that champions performance innovation while embracing a new sculptural, fashion-forward identity.
Departing from their past casual-minded designs, this release centers ASICS’ technical prowess. The sneaker fuses advanced running technology with architectural styling, resulting in a shoe that feels equally at home in the city or on the move. Key design upgrades include an extended lace system, a reinforced toe cap, and bonded mesh overlays that add structural complexity and visual tension to the upper.
The GEL-QUANTUM 360 I is available in two colorways: a dynamic Soft Yellow paired with Brisket Red, and a more grounded Soft Yellow with Black. Both options highlight the shoe’s layered construction and tonal depth, giving the sneaker a hybrid identity — part sport, part design object.
With this release, Above The Clouds continues to expand its creative dialogue with ASICS, not just remixing silhouettes but redefining how performance footwear can be perceived in a fashion context. It’s a step into the future of cross-genre design — equal parts utility, style, and experimentation.
The first drop lands July 26 via Above The Clouds, followed by a wider release on August 2 through ASICS Australiaand select global retailers including KITH, Dover Street Market, Notre, and Beauty&Youth.
