About Asics Gel Saga
The Asics Gel Saga is a running shoe from 1997 that grew into one of the earliest dad-shoes and thus helped lay the foundation for the chunky-sneaker trend. Thanks to a well-known collaboration at the end of the 2010s the model got a second life on the catwalk and then on the street. The silhouette stands out for its thick, pronounced sole and the layered upper of mesh and synthetic leather, with GEL cushioning visible in the heel. Where many retro runners stay subtle, the Gel Saga embraces the volume and technical look that defined the dad-shoe aesthetic. The combination of bright accent colours and neutral base tones gives the shoe a playful, almost sporty energy, and the many material layers on the upper add extra depth to the silhouette. Who is the Gel Saga for? This model suits anyone who doesn’t shy away from a pronounced, chunky silhouette and actively seeks it out. Pair it with straight trousers or cargo pants for balance, or with slim jeans so the shoe’s volume stands out. It also looks right at home with a sporty outfit, and the eye-catching sole almost always prompts people to ask about it. Which colorway should you choose? The Gel Saga appears in a wide range of executions, from muted base tones to rarer collaborations.
