CUSHIONING
• Gel Discrete Heel unit is comprised entirely of a silicone-based gel for responsive shock absorption on impact.
• Large Forefoot Gel cushioning system uses a silicone based gel that attenuates shock during toe-off.
MIDSOLE
• Solyte is an ultra light, top-of-the-line midsole that delivers durable and responsive cushioning.
• Guidance Line is a vertical flex groove in the forefoot for improved gait efficiency.
• Propulsion Trusstic System utilizes a thermal plastic unit that connects the lateral heel to the medial forefoot. This unit works to release stored energy and propel you forward during toe-off.
• Impact Guidance System (IGS) design creates a smooth and balanced heel-to-toe transition.
UPPER
• Heel Clutching System uses an exoskeletal structure that wraps the heel for a secure fit.
• Cuprothermo metallic film lines the upper. This material retains heat in cold weather to keep feet warm and dissipates heat in warm weather to keep feet cool.
• Biomorphic Fit Upper is a stretch material located in the forefoot that moves with the foot to reduce irritation.
• Open mesh in the upper keeps feet cool.
• Personal Heel Fit (PHF) uses a two layer memory foam lining in the heel collar to provide a individualized fit.
• Asymmetrical Lacing Design better follows the shape of the foot for an improved fit.
• ComforDry Sockliner is made with anti-bacterial material to reduce odor and moisture and provide additional cushioning.
• Strobel Last with the upper stitched to Solyte 45 Foam, for enhanced cushioning and a soft underfoot feel.
OUTSOLE
• Asics High Abrasion Rubber (AHAR) in the heel is made of carbon rubber for exceptional durability.
• DuraSponge Outsole in the forefoot is made from a blown AHAR compound, for responsive cushioning and flexibility.
• DuoSole Outsole provides lightweight, flexible, and durable traction.
