ASICS GT-2000 11 GS Junior Running Shoes
The GT-2000 11 GS (Grade School) shoe is a versatile stability trainer that's functional for various distances. ASICS have updated the underfoot cushioning to make it feel more comfortable and energetic. Key adjustments in the midsole include the brand's FF BLAST cushioning. This soft material helps promote softer landings and a responsive rebound. LITETRUSS technology is positioned on the inside of the midsole to improve stability. It helps prevent your foot from rolling too far inward, setting you up for a smoother stride.
Mesh Upper
Constructed using a Breathable Mesh Upper, the ASICS GT-2000 10 GS Junior Running Shoes feature a breathable mesh upper that encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The mesh upper creates a perfect microclimate for your feet to thrive in. Not only this, but these mesh materials offer an incredible amount of support and ensure a comfortable foothold for the little feet. Completing the upper is a lacing system that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage for a distraction-free fit.
FlyteFoam Blast Midsole
The ASICS GT-2000 11 GS Running Shoe's energetic underfoot ride comes from its one-piece FlyteFoam Blast midsole. This new foam is softer and bouncier, providing a great feel from footstrike to toe-off. The soft and energetic nature of the midsole increases the underfoot softness, almost enveloping the foot in a plush, supportive wrap. The midsole of the GT-2000 11 is made up of multiple compounds to bring you a cushioned and explosive ride from stepping out to stepping in. FlyteFoam Blast is the main cushioning compound used in the GT-2000 because of its lightweight foam formulation and high energy return. Its lightweight foam construction reduces drag allowing you to run faster for longer whilst the elastomer creates a high energy return for increased bounce and unrivalled toe-offs. Resilient and innovative, FlyteFoam Blast technology lets you run with the feeling that your feet aren't even touching the ground. FlyteFoam is the lightest cushioning material ASICS has ever made, 55% lighter than the industry standard, EVA and it buffers against the ground to protect you from unnecessary stress and fatigue. Its reinforced, organic fibres let the material bounce back to its original shape after every run, so you can train harder, more frequently, for longer without the worry your shoes might not be able to take it. A responsive underfoot ride makes the ASICS GT-2000 11 Running Shoe feel wispy and fast underfoot, an excellent choice for efficient runners who want to take their training to the next level. Embedded within this pillowy platform, and complimenting its bouncy nature, is the Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL Cushioning System, therefore improving medial support. It works to reduce shock during the impact phase and promotes a peaceful transition to midstance. LITERUSS technology also assists your feet in remaining comfortable, for a more supportive strive. The foam materials are designed to keep your feet feeling balanced in every step. Not only this but the shoes feature a removable sock liner with an ASICS FIT CHECKER print on the toe, allowing children and parents to recognise the right shoe from the left, whilst also helping you both to identify when they're outgrowing their shoes.
Durable Rubber Outsole
Developed using a durable rubber outsole, the ASICS GT-2000 10 GS Junior Running Shoes ensures improved grip in varied conditions. The rubber outsole is able to form a solid bond with the ground beneath it to ensure traction and grip on road surfaces. As well as this, the rubber outsole is highly durable to ensure long-lasting wear. Completing the outsole are flex grooves that assist with grip and form a solid base to push from. The grooves allow the whole of the outsole to naturally flex where the foot flexes to increase comfort as well as performance.
