Brain Dead x ASICS Trabuco Max Organic Chaos

A new collaboration out of the ASICS camp has surfaced with the arrival of the Brain Dead x ASICS Trabuco Max “Organic Chaos.” Brain Dead’s vision was rooted in the neglected and often overlooked aspects of the forest, specifically in molds, fungi and mycelium growth. This design language is reflected throughout the shoe, from the outsole all the way up to the laces. Its look and feel represents the idea of nature creating forms that adapt to the surrounding environment. The shoe’s upper is made to reflect how a trail and wild mushrooms interact with the earth – circular design language embodies rapidly expanding spores and molds. The outsole blends vibrant greens and dark blacks, signifying the amalgamation of earth with the thriving vegetation of the forest floor. Completing the sneaker are the unorthodox laces, which are disruptive while remaining functional.
