Asics GEL-MC PLUS Birch/Aizuri Blue Shoes

Originally created by GEL-LYTE III designer, Shigeyuki Mitsui in 1995, the GEL-MC PLUS sneaker returns from the ASICS running archive with a reimagined midsole design. Evolving the upper with a leather and mesh construction, this shoe emphasizes the notion of “Motion Control,” featuring its nylon midfoot strap on the medial angle that helped runners in the 90s reduce pronation. Technical for its time, we redesigned the midsole with the GEL-CUMULUS 17 running shoe tooling to evolve the design’s retro aesthetic while improving its cushioning.
