3 Color Options
Gore-tex: Gore-Tex technology in shoe uppers has revolutionized outdoor footwear by providing a waterproof yet breathable barrier that keeps feet dry and comfortable in a variety of weather conditions. The unique membrane of this material allows water vapour to escape while preventing water penetration, making it ideal for running shoes used in rainy or snowy climates.
FF BLAST™ PLUS: Asics' FF BLAST™ PLUS foam technology represents a significant advance in midsole cushioning. This foam is lighter than standard FF BLAST™ and offers up to 15% better cushioning, meaning it absorbs more energy on impact and returns more energy with every step.
PureGEL™: This new material is 65% softer and offers a 4% higher energy return compared to the previous GEL™ technology. PureGEL™ provides smoother transitions and softer impacts, making it ideal for runners looking for better cushioning and rebound in their shoes.
Rubber: The rubber outsole provides excellent grip and durability on a variety of surfaces. Thanks to its elasticity, it absorbs shock, increasing comfort when walking or running.
“In a healthy body, a healthy mind.” This is the message hidden in the name Asics, which is an acronym for an ancient Latin saying. The very first Asics sneakers were branded with Onitsuka Tiger instead of today’s well-known "a," paying homage to the brand’s founder, Kihachiro Onitsuka.
For a long time, Asics sneakers were perceived solely as high-quality running shoes. However, the hidden potential of Japanese design fully emerged at the end of the last decade, when models like the Asics Gel-Kayano 5 caught the attention of the streetwear world. Alongside this model, the Asics Gel-Kinsei silhouette also brought the brand into the spotlight of the fashion scene, where it now aims to play in the top league.
Asics Gel Cushioning Technology
With the rise of lifestyle sneaker culture and streetwear, many Asics models have transitioned into versatile footwear for everyday activities. Sneaker enthusiasts now view Asics as a fashion statement, thanks to the unique Japanese aesthetic and comfort provided by the Asics Gel cushioning technology – a gel capsule that offers exceptional impact absorption and bounce.
Asics’ relevance in streetwear culture was further solidified by the collaboration with Sean Wotherspoon on the Asics Gel-Lyte 3. This legendary model, along with other popular options like the Asics Gel-Nandi and Gel-Lyte, is available at Footshop in both men’s and women’s variants.
