Mark Oct. 16 for the Armani-Kith Asics Gel-Mai 0.1

The sneaker to circle on the calendar this week is the Asics Gel-Mai 0.1, made under the joint names of Giorgio Armani and Kith, and it arrives on Oct. 16. It belongs to the third outing the two houses have put together, which also brings boots produced with Diemme. That is a tailor, a streetwear label and two footwear specialists on a single lineup, which is the sort of guest list a well-run dinner aspires to. For the New Yorker who dresses from the ground up, the shoe with the Italian name and the running-shop pedigree is the one to watch for on the morning it lands.
