Name: UP THERE x ASICS GEL-KAYANO 12.1 “Natsukashii” Pt.II “Glacier Grey”Colorway: “Glacier Grey”SKU: TBCMSRP: $300 AUD (approx. $200 USD)Release Date: Available Now (In-stores), October 27 (online)Where to Buy: UP THEREFollowing up on the highly successful first release, UP THERE and ASICS have unveiled the second chapter of their GEL-KAYAN 12.1 “Natsukashii” collaboration, arriving in a new “Glacier Grey” colorway. This edition continues the thematic concept of “Natsukashii” – a Japanese term referring to a fond feeling when reminiscing about times past – which evokes a sense of nostalgia and familiarity that feels both old and new.The silhouette sports a crisp white palette, departing from the “Irvine Green” of the original sold-out release, but retains the signature red accents and UP THERE green branding, connecting the two parts of the collaborative story. A layered mesh and synthetic overlay design nod to the GEL-KAYANO’s running lineage, while subtle detailing and premium construction reflect UP THERE’s design sensibility. The muted grey tones are accented with carefully placed contrasts, creating depth without overpowering the shoe’s streamlined profile.

Now, the Swoosh has offered an official look at the sneaker. The shoe dons a Michigan-like colorway with “Obisidan” blue joining “Speed Yellow” and “Summit White.” As described in our initial breakdown below, Thai script is present at the toe-tip, a detail that Koston personally requested as a nod to his heritage and early SB designs. A release date has not yet been confirmed, however, Nike Canada is planning to drop its stock on November 4. Stay tuned for additional updates as we await further information.Original Story: Skateboarding legend Eric Koston has remained one of Nike SB’s most prominent figures for well over a decade. From fronting campaigns to presenting high-powered footwear collaborations and even leading his own signature shoe line, Koston continues to play a key role in guiding the division.One storyline involving the Nike SB team that we’ve kept a close eye on is its skate-oriented version of the Air Max 95 that is en route for the model’s 30th anniversary. We previewed a sample of the lead “Cactus Flower” colorway and now have an in-hand preview of an “Obsidian/Speed Yellow” take on the shoe dedicated to Koston. In addition to modifications made for skaters, the sneaker’s University of Michigan-esque colorway sees “koston” branding visible at the right shoe’s tongue tag and Nike SB callouts at the heel and outsole. The shoe also features Thai script that translates to “Nike” at the lateral toe, nodding to Koston’s birthplace of Thailand.At the time of writing, neither Eric Koston nor the Nike SB team have indicated when their collaborative take on the SB version of the Air Max 95 will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates, including official images of the kicks, as we currently expect this pair to drop by the end of the year via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $190 USD. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Yyt_Snkrs (@yyt_snkrs)
