ASICS EX89 Clay Grijs

Drawing inspiration from the 1989 GEL-EXTREME basketball shoe, the ASICS EX89 White Clay Grey is a clean, heritage-focused court sneaker. The upper is constructed from premium leather in a White/Clay Gray colorway, utilizing FF BLAST cushioning for modern daily comfort—a significant upgrade from the original 80s tech. Dropped on February 16, 2023, for $110, it features the iconic tiger stripes and a traction pattern designed to mimic a city’s skyline from above. We appreciate how this model bridges the gap between vintage basketball DNA and contemporary comfort, making it a versatile foundational piece for any rotation.
