The ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 'Indigo Blue' is a collaborative effort between ASICS and Li Gong's label 8ON8, drawing inspiration from the latter's contemporary vision of fashion informed by Asian culture. This iteration revives the late 2000s aesthetic of the GEL-Kayano series, updated with modern materials and design. It marks the first GEL-Kayano model not designed by its original creator, Toshikazu Kayano.
