The CONCEPTS ASICS Gel Lyte V 'Libertea' Is A Shoe For America. Review and Lace Swaps Included!

The Concepts Asics Gel Lyte V 'Libertea' released on July 8 for $150 and is a tribute to the Boston Tea Party. This is a successor to the Gel Lyte III 'Libertea' from 2015, and with Concepts having a flagship store in Boston this collaboration makes a lot of sense.
Featuring USA colors, a suede upper sole and Asic's GEL technology, this is one of my favorite pickups recently. Check out my in depth review including colorway, materials, quality, size and comfort. On feet and lace swaps included!

I just got my first pair of Asics recently - the Kayano 14 in cream, black. I’ve never owned any sneakers with this kind of “metallic” look (unless you count the Foamposites, which is a totally different kind of metallic). The style takes a bit getting used to, but the Kayano 14 is so comfortable! I’d say it’s even more comfy than most of my NB’s.

Good in depth review. Question: I’m a 9.5 in NB 990 series which is my true to size, so should I do the same with this model? There’s a couple of color ways from the “spring in Japan” series that I want to cop. ✌️

Yes I would just stay true to size!
