Born in 1990, the
asics gel-lyte evo nt has since become an icon of the sneaker world. This is thanks to its countless re-issues in original and new colorways, as well as a plethora of memorable collaborative releases. But what made the GEL-Lyte III the brand’s go-to retro runner in the first place? The unique split tongue, of course. The innovative and unorthodox tongue design was crafted as an alternative to the standard shoe tongue, which often slipped to one side or the other—instead of staying in the middle where it was supposed to. The resulting shoe made for an atypical and forever-remembered running silhouette.
