ASICS Gel-Kayano 29 Platinum Women's Running Shoes
The Gel-Kayano 29 shoe creates a stable running experience and a more responsive feel underfoot. Featuring a low-profile external heel counter, this piece comfortably cradles your foot with advanced rearfoot support. Part of the Platinum collection, this shoe is also accented with polished components throughout the design.
Engineered Stretch Knit Upper
A new Engineered Stretch Knit upper encases the Gel-Kayano 29 in breathable comfort. This supportive upper material helps reduce the need for traditional overlays. It also creates a more comfortable fit with advanced breathability. Its perforated construction allows air to fully permeate the entire upper, letting your feet breathe when the temperature starts to rise or your training session heats up. As well as radical ventilation, the construction delivers a premium fit that improves flexibility and decreases irritation-causing wrinkles (because ASICS know how rubbing and blisters can ruin your day) while maintaining its light weight. A heel counter, secures the rearfoot, helping to anchor you to the midsole and reduce in-shoe slippage so that you can enjoy smooth, distraction-free strides. A lacing system increases midfoot support to ensure a dynamic fit for all-day comfort. Completing this version of the Gel-Kayano is reflective detailing which helps to improve visibility in low-light conditions.
FlyteFoam Blast Plus Midsole
The midsole of the Gel-Kayano 29 Running Shoe has had an upgrade from the previous Gel-Kayano 28 model and has been constructed using FlyteFoam Blast Plus cushioning which provides the perfect balance of lightweight and rebound properties. These layers of protection, bounce, and comfort provide you with unmatched shock absorption and a lively ride. Its reinforced, organic fibres let the material bounce back to its original shape after every run, so you can train harder, more frequently, and for longer without the worry your shoes might not be able to take it. Embedded within the midsole platform, and complimenting its bouncy nature, is a Rearfoot GEL Cushioning System. This works to reduce shock during the impact phase, sparing your joints as your sprint down onto hard, unforgiving concrete, and allowing for a smooth transition to mid-stance. 3D Space Construction helps to improve compression and cushioning at footstrike and reduce pronation while an Ortholite X-55 sockliner offers excellent rebound and cushioning for all-day comfort. Lastly, the Gel-Kayano 29 features the new LITETRUSS technology which helps to improve medial support and midfoot integrity by helping keep your foot from rolling too far inward during your stride.
ASICS Lite Rubber Outsole
Supreme grip and traction are guaranteed with the ASICS Lite Rubber Outsole. ASICS' high abrasion rubber is a tough rubber compound used in heavy-contact or high-wear areas which helps to cut down on excessive wear. The high abrasion outsole provides a strong grip and works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. Creating a strong bond with the ground beneath it, the outsole allows you to stay in full control at all times. Flex grooves also adorn the outsole to provide added traction underfoot, the grooves allow for natural foot flexion for easy, unhindered paces.
