10. Ronnie Fieg x ASICS GT Cool Express “Sterling” ■ Ronnie Fieg reintroduced this model to

the public since originally being released in 1992.

■ This sneaker was released on March 4th 2016 for a price of $175 USD.

■ When this sneaker released it did not cause too much commotion, and was considered a sleeper based on resell prices on the internet.

■ In my opinion this sneaker has resemblance to the ASICS Gel Lyte V because of it’s tongue.

■ I personally own this sneaker in my closet, and love it because of its light spring/summer tones.

1. Ronnie Fieg x ASICS Gel Lyte V “Sage”
