A full look at ASICS x Mega Man Capcom Collection | The story behind the ASICS Japan S
In 1949, Kihachiro Onitsuka established ONITSUKA in Kobe, Japan. Later on, it was changed to ASICS, an acronym for the Latin expression “Anima Sana In Corpore Sano,” which means “You should pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body."
In 1950, the brand’s first athletic shoe, a basketball shoe, was made. This shoe was repeatedly tested and refined before releasing the first model.
This model is being improved continuously to achieve a shoe that can accommodate the necessary characteristics of a performance basketball shoe.
The inspiration of the Japan S is one of the brand’s throwback sneakers from 1981. It has a vintage basketball aesthetic that is complemented with court-specific details, like the court-inspired toe box.
