AHAR™, Rearfoot : A thinner and lighter version of Asics High Abrasion Resistance rubber. It is placed on the impact area of the outsole to reduce excessive wear.
Biomorphic Fit™ : Provides enhanced upper fit and comfort while decreasing potential for irritation.
Bunion Window : Soft synthetic area on the medial forefoot, reducing the risk of irritation.
ComforDry™ Sockliner : Made from an anti-bacterial material that not only reduces odor and moisture but also provides additional cushioning.
Dynamic DuoMax®, Medial Post : An upgrade of the DuoMax system by distributing local pressure proportionally to increase stability while providing improved comfort : DuoMax : Ensures that the shoe maintains proper support for the foot during the critical transition from heel strike to toe-off. The latest evolution has been introduced in the shoe with multi-rigid shape Dynamic DuoMax technology, resulting a ounce of weight saving s as to its previous design while providing the same level of support.
DuraSponge®, Forefoot : A new blown rubber compound for enhanced durability and cushioning in the forefoot.
Gel®, Forefoot n Rearfoot : Provides maximum rearfoot and forefoot shock attenuation.
Guidance Line™ : Vertical flex groove decouples the tooling along the line of progression for enhanced gait efficiency.
Heel Clutch System™ : This system removes the traditional internal heel components and replaces it with an exoskeletal heel counter to provides a more comfortable heel fitting environment while decreasing the probability of friction or irritation.
I.G.S.® : Impact Guidance System : Asics® design philosophy that uses linked componentry to encourage optimal gait while allowing for natural foot movement from heel strike to toe-off.
Open Mesh : An ultra lightweight shoe upper with overlays which provides excellent support and ventilation.
Solyte™, Midsole : Mid-sole material which is a advanced durable co-polymer that is lighter than standard EVA and Asics SpEVA®.
Solyte™ 65 Strobal Last : A high density material placed in the rear portion of the shoe to deliver the least soft feel under the foot : Strobel Last : The upper is attached to a thin material that is patterned on the shape or silhouette of the midsole. Traditional strobel lasts uses a thin cloth material, while newer variations use a thin sheet of EVA for a more cushioned feel.
Trusstic® System : Moulded component under the mid-foot area. Provides over-pro-nation control in combination with extremely contoured mid-soles. Reduces the weight of the shoe.
