The GEL-Nimbus 13 boasts outstanding levels of rearfoot and forefoot cushioning to absorb and disperse shock throughout gait.
The Impact Guidance System is a technical design philosophy that allows the foot to perform in a more natural manner for the intended sport.
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.
A reflective material produced by the 3M company for night safety.
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.
This is an injected and separate piece of Solyte that is in the forefoot of the midsole. The women’s piece is softer (48degree durometer measure) compared to the men’s (53degree). This allows the lighter frame of women to feel the cushioning available in the forefoot of the shoe.
New proprietary midsole material, which is lighter than ASICS’ standard EVA and SpEVA, combined with improved cushioning and durability.
Also a consequence from our Gender studies - ASICS scientists have used 3mm of additional midsole height (at the heel) on women’s models to help relieve possible strain on the Achilles tendon. Making sport a more comfortable and safer place for women.
This Space Trusstic has been built differently for the men’s and women’s models. Findings from our Gender Study recognized that women have slightly different physiological dynamics to men. The space in the Trusstic is larger for women to allow for easier release of the midsole for when their plantar flexes during the ‘windlass mechanism’ stage of gait.
New blown AHAR outsole material. Delivers enhanced cushioning, durability and ride to the forefoot.
The Guidance Line is a physical separation of the midsole. This vertical flex groove decouples the tooling and helps reproduce consistent load transfer at propulsion. IGS Adaptive Technology at its best.
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.
A reinforced EVA component contoured to provide medial and lateral stability.
A new lacing development that uses independently placed eyelets. This concept evens the lacing tension across the foot, creating a customised fit and enhanced upper comfort.
The Landreth introduces Clutch Collar System. This shoe literally feels like it’s wrapping itself around the heel resulting in virtually no heel slip during running. The end result is a shoe that takes comfort to a new level.
With a plush road feel and a surprisingly stable base, the GEL-Cumulus series has delivered exactly what many customers are looking for and more.
A high quality, limited distance shoe for runners with little or no gait issues.
Great for any activity you pursue, these ingenious tights are essentially a full leg muscle support system.
The sleeveless top is a great option where arm lift and motion is paramount to your training

The GEL-Nimbus 13 boasts outstanding levels of rearfoot and forefoot cushioning to absorb and disperse shock throughout gait. A clutch counter and Asymmetrical Lacing with Discrete Eyestay Technology improves upper fit and comfort whilst Full Length Guidance Line encourages the foot to follow the ideal line of progression from heel strike through to toe off.
