comes equipped with ASICS proprietary Impact Guidance System (I.G.S®) and propulsion plate that enhances the foot's natural propulsion.
Features P.H.F.® (Personal Heel Fit): 2 layers of memory foam line the collar and mold to the athlete’s heel, creating a personalized fit.

SpEVA® Midsole Material: Improves bounce back characteristics and decreases midsole breakdown.
DuoMax® Support System: A dual density midsole system positioned to enhance support and stability, positioned sport specifically.
Trusstic System®: Reduces the weight of the sole unit while retaining the structural integrity of the shoe.
