The VandyThePink x ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1 "Vanilla" Releases August 2026
Quick Summary
- VandyThePink x ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1 "Vanilla" releases August 14th, 2026 for $195 globally.
- White mesh upper features metallic silver overlays and rainbow sprinkle detailing across the early-2000s runner silhouette.
- Pink outsole with yellow and green GEL cushioning accents complete the ice cream dessert-themed design concept.
VandyThePink and ASICS are expanding the reach of their GEL-Kayano 12.1 "Vanilla" colorway, moving the lighter half of the Ice Cream Pack into a broader global release. The shoe originally debuted through VandyThePink's own channels alongside a "Chocolate" counterpart, but it is the "Vanilla" iteration that is now heading to select retailers worldwide.
The upper leans into the dessert concept through white mesh built over the GEL-Kayano 12.1's early-2000s runner frame, with metallic silver overlays wrapping the paneling throughout. Rainbow detailing runs across the shoe as a nod to sprinkles, keeping the theme present without overwhelming the cleaner white and silver base. A pink outsole grounds the build beneath, while yellow and green accents appear through the GEL cushioning units underfoot, adding pops of color to the sole unit. Custom insoles carry both VandyThePink and ASICS branding, extending the dessert-inspired narrative inside the shoe.
The VandyThePink x ASICS GEL-Kayano 12.1 "Vanilla" is set to release globally on August 14th, 2026 through ASICS and select retailers for a retail price of $195. To stay informed on all things ASICS and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
