Asics Alpine XT Women's Trail Running Shoes
Ideal for trail running, the Asics Alpine XT is durable and reliable, to give you confidence and performance in equal measures. Optimal grip and traction are provided by the trail-specific outsole while exceptional cushioning is ensured by the SpEVA midsole.
Breathable Mesh Upper
Breathable mesh has been used in the construction of the upper to provide excellent breathable and ventilation properties. The mesh actively and efficiently wicks away the build-up of excess sweat and moisture to leave your feet feeling cool, dry and comfortable as you strive for the best results and performance. In addition, cool air is encouraged to circulate, creating a cooler, drier environment for your feet to thrive in. A seamless finish offers resistance to abrasion and friction to help improve the comfort and avoid any unnecessary discomfort typically associated with trail running. A removable EVA sockliner moulds to the shape of the foot, which can be removed to accommodate a medical orthotic. The gusseted tongue adds comfort and guards against irritation such as chafing. The tongue also prevents debris from entering the shoe and causing discomfort.
SpEVA Midsole
A length of SpEVA Foam midsole material resides underfoot to improve bounce-back characteristics and decrease midsole breakdown; the added cushion produces a soft feel and improved comfort for an even, uninterrupted ride. This clever technology works to reduce shock during the impact phase; sparing your joints as you sprint down onto rocky terrain, and allowing for a peaceful transition to mid-stance.
Trail Specific Outsole
The trail-specific outsole offers an abundance of grip and traction to help you run with confidence, even on the most difficult, unpredictable terrain. Having the underfoot grip and traction enables you to maintain focus and performance, allowing you to push yourself to the limit without being held back by the shoe. Reversed lugs provide uphill and downhill traction on all types of terrain. The lugs are strategically placed to offer a full, unrestricted range of motion in all directions. In addition, the outsole is a hybrid, meaning it is not just able to perform on trails. You can also run on the road, paths and in all seasons making the shoe highly versatile.
