The ASICS HyperGel Kenzen, a bold stride in athletic footwear, debuted in March 2018. It marked a significant moment with the introduction of ASICS' innovative HyperGEL cushioning technology. This release, a strategic partnership, was exclusively available through Foot Locker, Inc., solidifying its place in the market.
Engineered for versatility, the HyperGel Kenzen seamlessly merges performance running features with contemporary street style. It is designed for all-day comfort, transitioning effortlessly from the gym to the streets. The shoe is suitable for casual walking or light running, offering a stable and cushioned ride.
The HyperGel Kenzen's influence is undeniable, prominently displayed with Steve Aoki. During the HYPERGEL-KENZEN x Aoki Campaign Launch in New York City, the shoe was a focal point. Further cementing its impact, Aoki was seen wearing the HyperGel Kenzen in various daily activities and performances, including gym sessions, studio work, and onstage appearances, solidifying its place in his lifestyle.
This iteration of the HyperGel Kenzen features a circular knit upper, embracing a modern, laceless design for a sock-like fit. The build includes a one-piece booty construction and a seamless stretch knit upper, promoting both flexibility and form. The midsole is crafted with eTPU and GEL beads, while the outsole utilizes high-abrasion rubber.
