We're excited to introduce the Dime x ASICS GT-2160™ shoe, a fresh take on a classic 2000s silhouette from ASICS' archives. This project represents a perfect harmony of the traditional and the modern, an embodiment of mutual respect and trust between ASICS and Dime, two innovators in their respective fields.

The Modern Approach to Classic Silhouette

For new and returning consumers, the GT-2160™ is more than a shoe. It's a symbol of respect for a classic ASICS silhouette, modernized with the unique aesthetic that is Dime's signature. Rather than traditional stitched panels, the team opted for a lighter, sleeker printed design, complemented by an updated gradient mesh and midsole. This evolution provides a unique stamp on the history of the GT-2160™ sneaker. What's more, Dime's goal of creating a timeless colorway that will be appreciated long past its limited shelf life is confidently achieved in this model.

A Perfect Alliance

This collaboration reflects the shared ethos of Dime and ASICS: a commitment to quality, innovation, and creativity. As Dime's founders, Phil Lavoie and Vincent Tsang, said, “ASICS has an incredible group of collaborative partners, and we are honored to now join that list. We are excited to introduce our loyal Dime fans to ASICS’ rich brand heritage and look forward to the release of our new collaborative GT-2160 shoe.”

About Dime

Founded in Montréal in 2005, Dime quickly distinguished itself with its humorous and innovative skateboarding video projects. It cultivated an uncompetitive style that appealed to a wide audience, breaking down barriers and shifting perceptions of what skateboarding could be. This ethos eventually led to Dime establishing its flagship store in Montréal and evolving into a clothing brand stocked in select skate retailers and fashion boutiques around the world.
