Philadelphia boutique retailer Lapstone & Hammer turns ten years old in 2025. To celebrate the huge milestone, the store has turned to a frequent partner, Asics, to release an anniversary edition of their GEL-1130 runner.

This century has marked a huge rise in sneaker culture, with plenty of new stores and brands rising up in the modern era of collaboration. Boutique stores are a favorite partner of footwear brands, offering a unique perspective on shoes as well as a dedicated space to showcase their products. One of the best over the last decade is Lapstone & Hammer, who frequently uses their strong relationship with Asics for special projects like their indigo dip-dye collection, or contributing to the upcoming GEL-Cumulus 16 “Tomo” release.

This year, Lapstone is turning ten years old, a huge milestone for an retailer in the rocky economic landscape of the last decade. To celebrate the store’s anniversary, L&H has turned once more to Asics to create a celebratory pair of the GEL-1130 runner. Arguably one of the best Asics retros in recent years, the shoe releases this weekend. The look features a soft cream white shade for the mesh base, and applies synthetic overlays in a shimmering metallic silver. Black accents are sprinkled throughout the shoe, while a gold finish completes the look.
