Japanese sneaker brand Asics has taken the sneaker industry by storm over the past few years. But before mesh runners became the best-selling shoes at boutiques across the globe, the Asics Gel-Lyte III captured the hearts of sneakerheads, with its split tongue and limited releases distinguishing real connoisseurs from hype chasers. The Gel-Lyte III is finding its own resurgence amidst the new Asics wave, with collabs from the likes of Kith and now, influence on a new pair of Gel-Nimbus 10.1.
In partnership with Taiwanese sneaker boutique Invincible, this exclusive Gel-Nimbus 10.1 is full of references, taking its colorway directly from the original Gel-Lyte III, marking the store’s 10th anniversary, and serving as a sequel to an Invincible x Asics collab from earlier this year. A third Invincible Gel-Nimbus 10.1 inspired by the 404 computer error code, the RGB colorway goes mismatched grey, taking its tone from the OG Gel-Lyte III while switching materials up, adding a hairy suede on the toe and heel of the left shoe, with smooth leather on the right. The left and right shoes alternate red and blue accents on the tongue and heel labels, but both shoes include side panel logos that stretch onto the midsole, with fraying fabrics at every end.
At the beginning of the summer, Invincible and Asics came together for a two-pack of 404-inspired Gel-Nimbus 10.1 colorways, one with green hits interrupting the white and silver base and the other with blue. In addition to Asics, Invincible has celebrated the store’s 10th birthday with adidas and New Balance collabs.
The Invincible x Asics Gel-Nimbus 10.1 404 RGB will be released through a global raffle by Invincible that is open from now until October 17th, followed by an in-store-exclusive release through Invincible on October 18, and finally, a global release through select Asics retailers in-store and online October 19, 2025. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is still TBD. For all the latest Asics drops and collab info, make sure to download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
