ASICS is a world-renowned Japanese multinational corporation that specializes in performance footwear and sports equipment. The company's heritage dates back to 1949 when Kihachiro Onitsuka founded Onitsuka Co., Ltd. in Kobe, Japan, with the vision of promoting youth health through sport. The brand name ASICS is an acronym for the Latin phrase 'Anima Sana In Corpore Sano,' which translates to 'A Sound Mind in a Sound Body.'

While the brand is headquartered in Japan, its manufacturing footprint is global. ASICS products are primarily manufactured in various Southeast Asian countries, including Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, and China, to manage large-scale production demands.
