Every monster has a night mode. For ASICS, it’s the GT-2160 “Black” (1203A764-001): a Y2K tech runner dipped entirely in black, transforming from archive piece into shadow hunter.
The GT-2160 is one of the strongest cards ASICS has pulled from the archives in recent years. The silhouette channels the early 2000s — curved lines, layered panels, that unmistakable technical DNA — and that exact look has once again stamped its authority on sneaker culture. From fashion weeks to street corners, the slim, refined tech runner has taken the throne, with the GT-2160 leading the procession.
Black-on-black, without compromise
This version takes the darker route, and the result is seriously strong. While many GT-2160 colorways play with silver and fresh accents, the “Black” keeps everything in the shadows. The result: all attention goes to the shape. Every line, layer and curve of the silhouette stands out even more in the dark — like a nighttime skyline, where you suddenly see the architecture instead of the billboards.
For him, a black tech runner is also the most reliable weapon in the closet. Rain, festivals, the office, night shifts: this pair takes it all in stride. Under black trousers, it creates one seamless line; with denim or cargos, it instantly gives your fit a technical edge. No other color demands so little and delivers so much.
The shadow comes with a price tag
