ASICS GEL is a silicone-based cushioning system designed to meet the needs of both professional and recreational athletes. Forefoot GEL reduces the loading forces as the foot moves into propulsion, improving performance and minimising the risk of injury.

Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning

Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning refers to the inclusion of specially formulated Solyte material in the forefoot. The material's density is reduced, allowing the female foot to compress it sufficiently and benefit fully from the bounce-back qualities of Solyte. Traditionally, women's running shoes contained cushioning material of the same density as men's. However, as women are usually lighter than men, the female foot would not fully compress the material, resulting in a less than optimal ride. Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning addresses this issue and provides women with a more comfortable and responsive ride. The cushioning material, located under the ball of the foot and extending across the width of the shoe, also acts as an efficient shock absorber.

Guidance Line

Die GUIDANCE LINE ist eine bis in die Mittelsohle reichende, vertikale Flexkerbe, die den Fuß vom Auftritt bis zum Abdruck immer wieder über die gleiche, optimale Kraftverlaufslinie zum perfekten Abdruckpunkt über die Großzehe führt. Auf diese Weise unterstützt die neue Außensohle natürliche, effiziente Laufbewegungen, insbesondere über lange Distanzen.
