Brain Dead x ASICS capsule collection focuses on two exclusive designs of ASICS' renowned GEL-NIMBUS 9 sneaker. First released in 2007, the GEL-NIMBUS 9 sneaker was initially created to cater to supinated and neutral runners. In this era of ASICS performance footwear, the design team shifted towards a more segmented midsole design. With GEL technology inserts in the heel and forefoot, this tooling helped create better cushioning and a more stable step. Today, the reimagined GEL technology has the flexibility of everyday use with support. Both shoes stay true to the original high quality ASICS materials and key accent details for flair. Their industrial look harks back to the Y2K era with bold contrast and colour blocking.
