Last night was a busy one for London-based trainer enthusiasts and one of the events we attended was the ASICS X ONITSUKA TIGER X SNEAKERSNSTUFF ‘TAILOR PACK’ LAUNCH PARTY at the SNS store in Shoreditch.
The event was a real international affair, with the guys from SNS coming over from Sweden, the ASICS team making the trip from Holland and the food on offer having a Japanese flavour. Throw in the Asahi beer and some good tunes – provided by SNS co-founder Erik – and you have all the ingredients for a great night!
Food and drink aside, it was also the first opportunity for everyone to get a proper look at the Gel Lyte V and Shaw Runner that make up the Tailor Pack, which with their tweed and pinstripe uppers respectively, wouldn’t look out of place on Savile Row. Both are unusual choices for footwear construction, but the results are spot-on and we heard nothing but positive things from those we spoke to at the party.
It was good to see a lot of the attendees rocking ASICS and Onitsuka Tiger on foot (a selection of which you can see below), from inline releases to co-labs and even some unreleased samples. Look closely and if you were there, you might even spot yourself!
It was great to catch up with lots of familiar faces and we thank ASICS and Sneakersnstuff for their hospitality.
