Technologies
-
I.G.S.
Calculated positioning of flex notches that guide the shoe so that the foot trajectory is as close to the ideal movement as possible. Pronators, neutral runners, or supinators will find in the I.G.S. the concept adapted to their stride. Its action will be complemented by the Duomax and the Trusstic/Duotruss.
-
AHAR+
New density in AHAR. Improves cushioning and durability.
-
Gel talon et avant
Mitigates shocks upon impact and during propulsion, providing total freedom of movement throughout the stride cycle. The Asics Gel system is probably the most famous of Asics' innovations. To provide the highest possible shock absorption, the Gel units are strategically positioned in the midsole. Different components are used for the Asics Gel cushioning system. Depending on its intended use, the Gel unit is encapsulated in polyurethane. The shape of the units is also precisely related to their position and function.

FlyteFoam
3 years of development and 300 prototypes for FlyteFoam cushioning.
Reinforced with fibers and padded with a material 55% lighter than the industry standard, this cushioning returns to its shape with every stride. You benefit from a smooth, airy stride.
Continuous cushioning is possible thanks to effective shock absorption, which instantly returns to its original shape, ensuring maximum cushioning.
Benefits:
- Soft landing
- Light and airy stride
-
Mesh Jacquard
New mesh designed in a single layer, minimizes friction between the foot and the upper for an optimized support experience. Open and closed woven seams allow for optimized flexibility and breathability while adding lightness.
-
Semelle intérieure Ortholite X-55
The ORTHOLITE? X-55 insole provides runners with a forgiving stride while remaining responsive.
-
Asics Lite Rubber
Rubber outsole that ensures full contact with the ground. Lighter, more resistant, and more durable than standard outsole rubbers.
