ASICS Gel-Pulse 12 Running Shoes
The Gel-Pulse 12 offers excellent cushioning and increased comfort. Edition 12 of the Gel-Pulse uses an engineered mesh through the upper, for soft breathability and a fresh in-shoe sensation. This version has a clean look, adding style to your wardrobe. Amplifoam cushioning alongside rearfoot GEL technology, adds softness, absorbs shock and keeps steps bouncy and comfortable. With a contemporary look, the Gel-Pulse 12 helps you take on whatever the day brings.
Durable Mesh Upper
Soft, breathable and comfortable against your skin, the Gel-Pulse 12 features a durable, engineered mesh upper. The construction keeps feet cool by providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air, to ensure overheating is prevented, meaning feet will thrive under the pressures of your next running endeavour. Perforations in the fabric allow cool, fresh air to surround feet, preventing a build-up of warm air and ensuring feet stay cool when things get intense. Moisture-wicking properties also reduce the amount of sweat that may form on your skin, keeping you dry under immense pressure, this combination provides a perfect microclimate for feet to thrive. Synthetic overlays keep feet protected from knocks and bumps and add durability to high-wearing areas. Featuring a soft, tongue and cushioned collar, with a softer fit around the heel and top of the foot, feet are comfortable during excessive movement. Finally, traditional laces keep feet secure and locked-in, preventing in-shoe slipping from occurring.
Amplifoam Midsole
Softening your landing, and keeping strides comfortable, the Gel-Pulse 12 features an Amplifoam midsole compound. This soft cushioning keeps you bouncy and ensures strides remain responsive and feet feel fresh and ready to tackle every mile. The midsole has shock-absorbing properties which work to spare your joints as you strike down onto harder surfaces, reducing the risks of injury or discomfort. Working in tandem, rearfoot GEL technology absorbs impact further to increase comfort and provide smooth transitions. Guidance line midsole technology enhances gait efficiency for comfort, and distraction-free strides, whilst an Ortholite sockliner adds even more comfort and has moisture-wicking to keep you dry.
AHARPLUS Outsole
Exceptional grip and traction on a variety of road running surfaces is provided, thanks to the AHARPLUS outsole that adorns the Gel-Pulse 12. Durable rubber is strategically positioned on the outsole of the shoe in areas that are usually higher wearing. This reduces the excessive risks of wear, adding durability to the outsole of your shoes, and providing you with a highly reliable running companion. The durable rubber forms a solid grip on a wide range of surfaces, for optimum grip and providing you with a stable running base. AHARPLUS is 50% more durable than the standard ASICS High Abrasion Rubber outsole, meaning you can truly rely on your footwear for longevity and comfort on long journeys.
