ASICS Gel-Sonoma 4 Women's Trail Running Shoes
The ASICS Gel-Sonoma 4 is a women's trail shoe that loves the great outdoors. With cushioning and stability over rough surfaces, it offers a comfortable ride with outstanding grip.
Open Forefoot Mesh
The upper of the Gel-Sonoma 4 is constructed from mesh, which will encase each foot in breathable comfort. Perforations in the fabric increase airflow to create a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. Overlays swathe the midfoot for increased support; they unite with the lacing system to promote complete lockdown, anchoring you to the midsole and reducing in-shoe slippage so that you can enjoy smooth, distraction-free strides. A toe guard reinforces the Sonoma's trail-worthy state by defending feet against roots, rocks and other general hazards. This protection is enhanced through an internal heel counter, which increases support and reduces over-pronation.
AmpliFoam Midsole
The Midsole of the Gel-Sonoma 4 contains ASICS' groundbreaking AmpliFoam technology. Designed to work with all 33 joints in the foot, this technology provides soft cushioning constructed a lower density, which protects it from breaking down. This softer midsole allows for better flexibility, comfort, and adaptability. An Ortholite sockliner lies above the midsole; this is implemented to supply an extra layer of plush and hygienic underfoot comfort. This premium product features higher rebound properties but also provides excellent moisture management and a high level of breathability; so you stay damp-free and comfortable on hot, longer distance days. Further embedded within this platform is the Rearfoot GEL Cushioning System. This technology works to reduce shock during the impact phase, sparing your joints as you sprint down onto hard, unforgiving terrain and allowing for a peaceful transition to mid-stance.
Carbon Rubber Outsole
The sole of the Gel-Sonoma 4 is made from moulded rubber, creating a tough, protective outsole that can take anything you through at it. Multi-directional thinner lugs are included to make it tough enough to go the distance and offers superb grip and traction to allow you to push yourself further in the worst conditions possible. These lugs prevent your feet from sliding sidewards or backwards, and help to control your pace during descents.
