TLDR: AIREI continues its avant-garde aesthetic with its latest collaboration with ASICS by wrapping the Gel-Quantum Kinetic sneaker in special khadi gauze from East India. This unique design decision requires the first layer of the upper to be torched to reveal the iconic ASICS stripe logo and AIREI branding underneath. Featuring a futuristic Scutoid Gel-cushioned outsole and a shoe box also wrapped in gauze, allowing fans to become part of the creative destruction process, this limited edition of just 30 pairs will be available exclusively at Dover Street Market in Los Angeles from 29 February for $265.

Following the presentation of the GT-2160 with plaster overlay at last year's Paris Fashion Week, AIREI is once again venturing into new, innovative territory with the Gel-Quantum Kinetic in collaboration with ASICS. This extraordinary collaboration is characterised by a bold design where the sneaker is completely wrapped in khadi gauze, which is specially produced in East India. The intention behind this bold design is that the wearers burn the top layer to reveal the design underneath with the ASICS logo and AIREI branding - a process that emphasises the connection between the fans and the creative act.

Mark your calendars for 29 February, as the limited edition sneakers will be released exclusively at Dover Street Market in Los Angeles on this day.

Available for $265 only at Dover Street Market in Los Angeles, these extraordinary sneakers offer sneaker fans a unique opportunity to own a piece of art that is both a statement in design and an act of creativity.
