The Japan S sneakers are based on one of the throwback offerings from 1981. This reworked iteration is formed with a low-top silhouette that's complete with a court-inspired toe box. Updated with a lightweight design that features a modified cup sole, this sneaker is complemented with premium comfort and improved cushioning. Mimicking the aesthetic of a retro basketball sneaker, this heritage style is also paired with nostalgic brandings, like the Asics stripes on the quarter-panels and Asics lettering at the heel.
