Where to buy ASICS in Canada since its flagship closed

For an everyday pair, buy direct on asics.com/ca. A free OneASICS membership drops the $10 charge on orders under $150, so standard shipping is free with no minimum. You get 30 days from purchase to return unworn shoes with a free prepaid label.

Hunting a collaboration release points you away from the brand site toward independent shops. Three independent shops hold 10 pairs at $200 CAD or less alongside collector shoes reaching $1,000 CAD. Those boutique orders mean giving up the brand's 30 day return window.

Kith, JJJJound and Gallery Dept pairs at three boutiques

Across the Toronto ASICS shelf, three independent storefronts stock 30 new pairs from $100 to $1,000 CAD, read 1 November 2026. The ASICS designer page brings them together, with 10 pairs priced at $200 CAD or less.

Utopia on Cumberland Street accounts for 25 of those pairs. Its top price reaches $1,000 CAD for the ASICS Gel-K1011 Gallery Dept Mental Energy Multi-Color.

JJJJound pairs include the Gel-Kayano 14 White Blue at $400 CAD and the GT-2160 Inverted Blue at $450 CAD. Kith collaborations feature the Gel-Kayano 14 Marvel vs Capcom Wolverine for $500 CAD. That rack also holds the Gel-Nimbus 10.1 Kith Marvel vs Capcom Iron Man vs Mega Man Sealed Box (Comic Included) at $800 CAD.

Available sizes vary sharply across these shelves. The $100 CAD Gel-1130 Piedmont Grey comes in grade school sizes 5Y and 7Y. In contrast, the Gel-1130 Black Pure Silver at $250 CAD covers seven sizes from men's 5 to 12.

Prices diverge between shops on identical stock. Cumberland Street prices the 2024 ASICS GT-2160 Kith Cream Scarab at $350 CAD. That shoe costs $445 CAD at parlor23, a split reflected in our comparison of New Balance and ASICS.

Buy current runners from the brand, but treat boutique collaboration pairs as final sale commitments.

At parlor23, $150 CAD buys the ASICS Gel-Kayano 5 "Reigning Champ Kyoto Edition" from 2021. Outlined carries the grade school Asics Gel-1130 "White Blue" marked down to $180 CAD from $200 CAD.

Utopia makes all sales final, Willison Square makes all shoes final sale, and Outlined limits refunds to errors in fulfilment. Check the ASICS size chart before paying, because you cannot return a pair that fits small. Each shop offers pickup at the counter, and its own page lists hours and delivery times (counter pickup is just as final as delivery).

The outlet stores ASICS kept after the flagship closed

Retail Insider reported on 30 October 2022 that ASICS shut its 4,400 square foot flagship at 364 Queen Street West in Toronto. That space opened in March 2018 as the brand's sole full price Canadian outpost. Seven outlet locations remained open according to the report, including Toronto Premium Outlets in Halton Hills, Vaughan Mills, and CrossIron Mills near Calgary.

On 1 November 2026, Tanger Outlets Ottawa and Outlet Collection Winnipeg each listed an active ASICS store on their websites. The five other outlet locations from the 2022 report were not rechecked.

Those physical outlet doors handle online returns without charge. The returns page on asics.com/ca states you can bring items to any ASICS store or outlet in Canada with your order confirmation. Shipping fees paid on an initial delivery are not refunded.

From Onitsuka Shokai in 1949 to the Kayano line on the shelf

Kihachiro Onitsuka founded Onitsuka Shokai in Kobe in 1949, producing his first basketball shoe in 1950. In 1977, his company merged with GTO and Jelenk to establish ASICS Corporation, naming it from the Latin anima sana in corpore sano. Global operations still run from Kobe, placing the label in our guide to Japanese designer brands.

Technical development accelerated in 1986 with the release of silicone GEL cushioning. The Kayano line followed in 1993, establishing the silhouette that anchors modern releases. Today, boutique racks hold a Gel-Kayano 5 pair from 2021 alongside Gel-Kayano 14 collaboration pairs.
