FEATURES

Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.)
ASICS® design philosophy that employs linked componentry to enhance the foot's natual gait from heel strike to toe-off.

Propulsion Trusstic
Mimics connective tissue in the foot by creating tension as foot enters propulsion stage.

Discrete Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL® Cushioning System
Attenuates shock during impact and toe-off phases, and allows movement in multiple planes as the foot transitions through the gait cycle.

Heel Clutch Counter
Exoskeletal heel counter provides improved support and creates improved heel fitting environment.

Removable Sockliner
EVA sockliner moulded to the shape of the foot, which can be removed to accommodate a medical orthotic.

Biomorphic Fit upper
Stretch material strategically placed on the upper helps to reduce buckling and the potential for irritation.

Full Length Guidance Line®
Vertical flex groove decouples the tooling along the line of progression for enhanced gait efficiency.

X-40 Ortholite Sockliner
Memory foam that provides enhanced bounce back and anti-microbial properties for cooler, drier, healthier environment.
