Update: It’s been about five months since Kiko Kostadinov took to Instagram to tease his ASICS NOVALIS line’s two GEL-TEREMOA colorways for SS24. Now, it’s finally time for the sneakers to hit shelves as the Bulgarian designer has announced an official release date. Both the “Burgundy/Black” and “White/Blue” iterations are set to drop on April 12 via Kiko Kostadinov’s website at an expected price of $250 USD. Stay tuned for a closer look at the pairs as we near the launch date.
Original Story: London-based designer Kiko Kostadinov teased his signature ASICS NOVALIS line throughout 2023, officially debuting the range earlier this month. The first drop was well-received, featuring technical apparel and three GEL-TEREMOA colorways.
Kostadinov has taken to Instagram to reveal fresh iterations for 2024, expanding his relationship with the Japanese footwear titan through inventive designs. While the previous pairs sported dominant leather materials, the two new colorways are clad in breathable mesh uppers.
Textured textiles are positioned across the low-top model with raised ASICS branding extended on the medials. Smooth leather accents decorate the collars with debossed ASICS NOVALIS lettering, moving down the toe boxes that mimic bowling shoes from above. The “Burgundy/Black” and “White/Blue” color combinations are complete with collaborative flaming tongue logos, clawed rubber soles, and plastic heel cups.
The mule version boasts lattice-like uppers in blue, white, and black tones, featuring silver tongue tags and oversized ASICS symbolism across the medials and toe boxes. The backless model is complete with grey textile liners and two-toned bottoms similar to previous pairs.
Take a closer look at Kiko Kostadinov’s ASICS NOVALIS GEL-TEREMOA colorways for 2024 in the gallery above, and stay tuned for more release information coming soon.
