Cushioning
- Rearfoot Gel cushioning system is a silicone based gel that absorbs shock during impact.
Midsole
- Solyte is Asics’ cushioned and responsive midsole, which is very light for the level of cushioning and durability it delivers.
- Trusstic System is located at the bottom of the midsole, made from thermal plastic. It reduces the weight of the sole while decreasing torsion between the rearfoot and forefoot.
Upper
- Open mesh encompasses the majority of the upper and offers breathability to keep the foot cool.
- Asics logo is located at both the medial and lateral sides of the upper to keep the shoe snug to the foot.
- Slip Lasting involves wrapping and stitching the upper in a bootie shape before it is glued to the midsole to increase flexibility and decrease weight.
