Deviating from the chunky trend that currently serves many retro models, the new Asics sneaker by Kiko Kostadinov takes a completely different path. So the Gel Quantum Levitrack looks like a futuristic soccer shoe equipped with the best technology that can be found in Kobe. The red upper combined with the linear pattern exudes a dynamic look, while the gel sole contrasts and prominently grounds the collaborative project. At StockX you can still find the sneaker in a few individual sizes.

1st place: Li-Ning Scenery

Just about any sneaker from the Chinese sneaker brand Li-Ning could have been in this place. It is not without reason that first place in this ranking goes to Beijing this week, as the brand from the top athlete of the same name has made it its task to design sneakers that clearly stand out from the rest of the market - and they do not shy away from any extremes ! Silhouettes like the Sunchaser or Titan Halo are as bold as Demna Gvasalia sneakers, but remain on a technical level like brands á la Asics or Salomon.

Our personal favorite at the moment is the Li-Ning Scenery, which is available in three different colourways. As so often with Li-Ning, the sneaker is full of small, functional details. The side panels act like a shark's gills and let your feet breathe, while a Lightfoam sole provides the necessary cushioning. A pull closure makes laces obsolete and the mesh upper gives the wearer a feather-light and breathable feel. For just 105 euros, we can warmly recommend that you take this technical high-fashion sneaker with you at a ridiculous price. Here you will find all colorways and different sizes of the Li-Ning Scenery.
