Help me ID this Asics jacket, please

December 8, 2015 11:28 AM

I bought an Asics jacket at Marshalls. I would like to know year, msrp, intended use (just for fun). There wasn't an identifying tag, and I've had no luck w the Asics website or an image search on the identifying logo - reflective "highway" emblem on the center back, see pics. Thanks for your indulgence.

are there any tags on it at all? sometimes along the inside seam by your hips there's a tag with the washing instructions/numbers on it that help retailers identify it for returns and stocking.

Best answer: A jacket which appears to match yours is listed on eBay under the name of "Asics Knit Bonded Jacket". Bonus find: a Reddit thread from last year wherein the submitter asks for help IDing the same jacket, an Asics one they picked up for cheap at Marshall's.

Response by poster: Wow, I swear I did my googling... It must be that "Asics Knit Bonded Jacket" - thanks!

I wonder what the little highway emblem signifies. It seems they change up that emblem - I've seen a Mt Fuji one, and a couple others.
