The Bodega x Asics Gel Mai Underground puts a strong emphasis on death and its portrayal across all cultures and time. The theme was placed on this model because of its technical and performance-inclined build that suggests the dynamism of human movement, and the skeletal structure as the foundation of this physical vitality. The upper is composed out of a mixed material construction of suede, leather and textile paired up with the asymmetrical lacing structure. The Tiger stripes are relocated to a two-dimensional logo on the midsole as well as towards the heel of the shoe.
