ASICS EX89 ‘White Midnight’ (ARCHIVE) is a modern revival of a late 1980s basketball silhouette, combining heritage court design with contemporary updates. The sneaker features a white leather upper contrasted by Midnight accents, creating a clean and structured visual balance. With its layered panel construction and vintage basketball proportions, the model reflects the original design language while integrating updated comfort and cushioning elements. The EX89 maintains a low-profile shape that transitions easily from sport-inspired origins to everyday wear.

Backstory
Originally designed in 1989, the EX89 was part of ASICS’ early basketball footwear lineup, influenced by American court aesthetics of the era. The silhouette has since been reintroduced as part of a broader revival of archival models, reflecting a renewed interest in vintage basketball design. Updated versions incorporate modern technology while preserving the structure and identity of the original release. The ASICS EX89 ‘White Midnight’ represents this balance between heritage and contemporary functionality, bringing a classic design back into rotation.

The Archive
The archive, a concept by The Attic, offers nearly deadstock items at a fraction of their market value. The products available in the archive are distinctive and may be incomplete, have minor defects, or exhibit slight signs of wear.
