Asics GEL-1090 V2 Shoes. The GEL-1090™ V2 sneaker from the IMPERFECTION Pack is inspired by the idea of celebrating imperfection. It's designed with visible foam and cracked leather details that resemble how clay pots age over time. Similar to the motion of a waving checkered flag, sweeping lines appear along the midsole. Meanwhile, the heel is layered with GEL® technology to improve comfort. Cracked leather details. Canvas underlays. Rearfoot GEL® technology improves cushioning and creates a softer feeling at footstrike. Lace-up closure. Imported.
