ASICS GT-4000 Running Shoes
The ASICS GT-4000 is a stylish men's trainer that's exactly what's needed for road running. This specially engineered shoe offers top-level cushioning and stability, thanks to highly developed technical features such as the Rearfoot GEL Unit. It's ideal for feet that have a tendency to over-pronate - that is, to roll in during a run - as it offers just the right amount of support. The result? A better technique and the ability to run further and faster.
Sandwich Mesh Upper
The GT-4000 makes every step count, helping your feet from the first step. A full sandwich mesh upper is highly breathable allowing heat build up to be dissipated quickly, leaving for a comfortable cool run. When firing through the gait cycle extra help is at hand with an internal heel counter; providing improved support and creates an enhanced heel fitting environment, reducing risks of potential injury to the foot and surrounding muscles and allowing a smooth transition from heel strike to toe off.
FlyteFoam Lyte Midsole
ASICS play their ace card in lightweight cushioning: FlyteFoam Lyte. A third layer of protection, bounce and comfort, it sits under the heel and midfoot to provide you with unmatched shock absorption and a lively ride. FlyteFoam Lyte is the next generation of ASICS' lightweight and responsive cushioning technology. The midsole formula features a reinforced, sustainable nanofibre compound which increases the foam's durability and provides more stability for runners, buffering against the ground to protect the wearer from unnecessary stress and fatigue. The reinforced 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. 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. Sitting beneath the SpEVA platform, and complimenting its bouncy nature, is the Rearfoot GEL Cushioning System. This clever technology works to reduce shock during the impact phase; sparing your joints as you sprint down onto hard, unforgiving concrete, and allowing for a peaceful transition to mid-stance. A medial support panel provides extra support to the arch of your foot through the gait cycle improving stability for confident foot. The Speva 45 Lasting enhances stability and comfort providing density for a high cushion, whilst the EVA Insole moulds to the shape of the foot for a smoother ride and a customised fit.
AHAR and AHAR+ Outsole
The AHAR and AHAR+ outsole provides excellent abrasion resistance and durability giving enhanced grip every run. The combination of highly durable rubber material with reinforced material offers unprecedented durability offering the ultimate performance everytime; that AHAR has has an abrasion resistance that is twice as high as conventional rubber, whilst the AHAR+ three times higher. You can be confident that the ASICS GT-4000 can keep up with the pace.
