As part of the new ASICS tiger gold collection for 2015, the gel-lyte iii utilizes a combination of premium materials, ranging from classic leather and mesh upper overlays to elite waterproof suede constructions. Reinforcing the sockliner and heel-collar are traditional neoprene fabrics for greater padding and comfort, while the distinctive split-tongue aids to prevent typical side-to-side tongue movement. Finishing off the heritage favorite is the iconic crisp white gel cushioned midsole that ensures a consistent and luxury fit.
