The GT-2160 pays homage to the technical design language from the GT-2000 series in the early 2010s. This version keeps the iconic design language of the Heritage trainer intact and retains key functions such as its sleek aesthetic and wave-like shaping in the forefoot. Other influential details from the 2010s include a segmented midsole structure and GEL technology inserts. This combination creates an industrial aesthetic that is met with advanced cushioning features.
