Foot Locker to Release ASICS Sneaker Created by its 'Fueling the Future of Footwear' Master Class at PENSOLE Footwear Design Academy - Seite 2

Foot Locker's "Fueling the Future of Footwear" Master Class at PENSOLE Footwear Design Academy is a three-week course that provides the opportunity for 18 students around the world to gain first-hand design experience. The students are split into six teams of three in a competition-style course. Each team is given a brief to execute against, and the teams are judged by a panel of experts, including those from Foot Locker and ASICS, and evaluated on the design's creativity and retail practicality.

The next PENSOLE x ASICS collab is expected to drop exclusively at Foot Locker in late 2018. Registration for the next "Fueling the Future of Footwear" Master Class will open this spring. For further information, opportunities and more, visit https://www.footlocker.com/pensole.
