Back in September we gave you a look at the Asics GEL Noosa Tri 6 Collection and as was expected, the wild and crazy color schemes were met with a diversity of mixed reviews. For some the loud and attention grabbing, bright camouflage color combination applied to this Triathlon shoe with Australian heritage and inspirations.

Complete with kangaroos riding bicycles and colors that make it impossible to go unnoticed, the Asics GEL Noosa Tri 6 makes the move from Down Under to the States for US triathletes. The key to the Noosa Tri 6 is a soft lining with minimal stitching that ensures throughout the running, biking and swimming, those uncomfortable wear points that all athletes are familiar with are essentially non-existent. On top of that a combination of breathable mesh and the ultra lightweight material, Asics’ proprietary Solyte 55, the Noosa Tri 6 comes in at a feather-like 10.6 ounces.

Performance oriented with colors that scream for attention, the Asics GEL Noosa Tri 6 is available now at Eastbay in both men’s and women’s colorways.
