Asics Gel Nimbus 19 Running Shoes
Take on every kilometre with the lightweight comfort of the GEL-Nimbus 19, now with an improved fit and extra ease. These running shoes offer multiple levels of cushioning, thanks to the combination of a FluidRide 2.0 midsole, FlyteFoam bottom layer midsole and SpEVA top layer midsole. Together, this cushioning increases bounce-back characteristics while decreasing midsole breakdown.
Upper
A lightweight, gradient jacquard-mesh upper will encase your feet in breathable comfort. Its seamless construction provides an irritation-free fit; because we know how blisters and rubbing can ruin your day. Asics' Fluidfit upper technology combines multi-directional stretch mesh with stretch reinforcements that adapt to the foot, creating a truly customized, glove-like fit and therefore reducing in-shoe slippage for a distraction-free run, with minimal friction. The 3D printed overlays provide smooth support. The upper is tightened and loosened in certain areas to allow for the foot's natural motion; working with you as you train for everything from morning runs to challenging marathons. The asymmetrical lacing system unites with an exoskeletal heel counter to guarantee perfect comfort and fit, especially in the ankle and heel area. Independently placed eyelets disperse lace tension, also contributing to the comfortable and customised fit of the Gel Nimbus 19.
Midsole
A ComforDry sockliner cradles the foot with breathable, moisture-wicking ease; preventing the development of that distracting clammy feeling and keeping you cool and motivated. ComforDry Lasting material in the midsole exists for plush, underfoot comfort; a treat for your feet, on those longer distance days. Fluidride technology, a two layered midsole construction, features for a winning combination of cushioning and bounce-back. The luxurious SpEVA and Solyte material fusion results in comfort, durability and light weight; cushioning the foot from heel to toe throughout the gait cycle and supplying energy packed bounce; reducing superfluous use of muscle power and therefore diminishing fatigue, keeping you driven for longer. Sitting beneath the Fluidride platform, and complimenting its bouncy nature, are the rearfoot and forefoot GEL Cushioning Systems. They work to reduce shock during the impact phase; sparing your joints as you sprint down onto unforgiving concrete, and allowing for a smooth transition to mid-stance. Still not quite content with their luxurious formulation, Asics play their ace card in lightweight cushioning: FlyteFoam. A third layer of protection, bounce and comfort: it provides you with unmatched shock absorption and a lively ride. 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 that your shoes might not be able to take it. Resilient and winning, FlyteFoam technology lets you run with the feeling that your feet aren't even touching the ground.
Outsole
A Trusstic System has been implemented to reduce the weight of the sole unit and link the forefoot and rearfoot; working alongside the Guidance Line technology to encourage a more consistent, directional gait. A Durasponge Outsole completes the Asics Gel Nimbus 19, supplying EVEN MORE cushioning and durability. AHAR (Asics High Abrasion Resistant rubber) has been strategically placed in high-stress areas to supply excellent grip without compromising the shoe's permanence. Everything has been thought of to provide you with the most reliable, comfortable running shoe. Reflective elements embellish the Gel Nimbus 19, increasing your visibility to passing vehicles and keeping you safe on those late night road runs.
