This running based cross trainer, built around the midsole of the GEL-Nimbus has been coupled with an upper and outsole designed to withstand the wear and tear associated with side to side movement.
Moulds and customises itself to the individual heel shape of the wearer.
Radical upper technology involving flex points over areas of highest buckling for much improved fit, dramatically reduced loading and greater comfort, especially over bony prominences.
An EVA sockliner moulded to the shape of the foot, which can be removed to accommodate a medical orthotic.
ASICS new proprietary midsole material takes on a new role as a lasting technology, enhancing comfort by improved cushioning through the use of three different densities: 45 density for high cushion and flexibility.
New proprietary midsole material, which is lighter than ASICS’ standard EVA and SpEVA, combined with improved cushioning and durability.
The ASICS GEL System is probably the most famous of all our innovations. To bring about the highest possible shock absorbing effect, the GEL-units are strategically placed in the midsole of the shoe. For the ASICS GEL cushioning system various materials are used. Depending on its function, the GEL-unit contains a siliconebased porous foam, a silicone GEL or a semi-solid silicone substance encapsulated in polyurethane. The shape of the units are also precisely designed to the specific function and position.
ASICS High Abrasion Rubber. Tough rubber compound used at the heavy-contact areas of the outersole. Helps cut down on excessive wear.
The new ASICS Space Trusstic system works with the complex functions of the foot to facilitate Windlass Mechanics.
The GEL-496 Leather carries the same midsole/outsole tooling as its predecessor and falls into the court based cross training category due to an extremely durable AHAR outsole that has been wrapped up onto the midsole in several locations.
A new introduction to the cross training range, this 80% court base shoe has great wrapping of the midsole in the forefoot to cater for toe drag issues.
The Pace Sock has a cushioned sole, arch support and mesh ventilation for ultimate comfort.
