Step Inside the Studio With ASICS Novalis Season 3
info@hypebae.com (Hypebae) Tue, 23 Sep 2025 HypebaeThe newest ASICS Novalis drop just landed and we can't get enough. The cult-loved collaboration between ASICS and Kiko Kostadinov returns for "Season 3," introducing a new Fall/Winter 2025 capsule that blurs the lines between performancewear, craftsmanship and quiet living.
Built on ASICS' signature mantra "Sound mind, sound body," the new drop trades high-intensity performance for the art of slowing down. The campaign, lensed by photographer Jason Evans, captures a meditative portrait series of artists in their studios across London and the South of England, inviting us into the focused stillness of their crafts.
The first release features intimate visuals of ceramicist Vivien Lee, stained glass artist Claire Orme, accessories designer Raiheth Rawla and puppet maker Ash Appadu, each captured in their creative sanctuaries. The result is more than a lookbook; it's a celebration of intentional work and the quiet pride of making something by hand, offering us an intimate insight into these personal spaces.
Rooted in themes of functionality and self-discipline, the capsule leans into utility-driven silhouettes with a thoughtful, almost calming use of color. Expect natural creams, mossy greens and charcoal blacks, paired with clean lines and contrast stitching. The footwear offering is a slip-on sneaker that feels effortlessly wearable, especially for long days spent creating. It's the perfect combination of Kiko Kostadinov's futuristic design and ASICS' athletic roots, with checkered accents available in a deep blue or warm orange. Whether you're looking for calm energy or creative chaos, this collection will have you ready for your next adventure.
The Novalis collection will see a global release on September 25 across both the ASICS and Kiko Kostadinov websites.
