-avatar-sneaker Earlier this year, fashion designer Kiko Kostadinov and sportswear giant ASICS debuted their joint tabi sneaker, the ILARGI FF. This stylish collaboration caused quite a stir in the shoe world, borrowing from a classic ASICS shape. Now, the pair is back with their latest offering, the LYASA FF, which once again features split toes and a focus on comfort.
The brand new sneaker was first teased during Kiko Kostadinov’s Fall/Winter 2025 showcase in Paris. Drawn from the very same design template as the ILARGI FF, this fresh shoe maintains a similar aesthetic to its predecessor. Opting for a lace-free design for this release, the LYASA FF boasts a streamlined slip-on style that’s available in two color options: black and brown.
A striking, metallic pattern adorns the upper section of the sneaker, appearing in silver for the black variant and a copper hue for the brown. This intricate, swirling motif immediately draws attention to itself, compensating for the absence of laces with its eye-catching, twisted pattern.
Just like their previous collaboration, the LYASA FF is a component of a broader marketing campaign, filmed in Japan by the acclaimed Ryan Trecartin. As the second of three anticipated campaign films, the prospect of more collaborative tabis is very thrilling.
The LYASA FF is now available for purchase on the Kiko Kostadinov website.
On a side note, Pink Pantheress is currently serving as UGG’s top brand ambassador.
