ASICS and SneakerLAH turned a Malaysian dessert into a running shoe, and the result is stranger than it sounds. The Gel-Kayano 20 Ice Kacang maps ice kacang layer by layer: a white-to-pink gradient mesh for the rose syrup, yellow accents for sweet corn, a cream FluidFit cage for the evaporated milk drizzle, green GEL inserts for cendol jelly, a black Guidance Trusstic outsole for grass jelly, and red bean detailing at the eyelets and toebox. A quick-toggle lace lock, a first for the series, finishes the look, and the heel swaps the usual GEL lettering for LAH. It continues a run of sneaker collaborations that started with Nasi Lemak in 2019 and ran through KLCC, Teh Tarik, and MAMEE Monster. The US drop landed October 24 at $210 through ASICS, while Malaysia paid RM899 through a SneakerLAH raffle and a LahLahLand launch. I would check ASICS before assuming your size is still there, because limited runs like this do not sit around. For context, the standard Gel-Kayano 20 runs around $180, so the collaboration carries roughly a $30 premium.
