Under the hood

• AHAR+

  ASICS High Abrasion Resistance Rubber (AHAR) is a tough compund used at the heavy contact area of the outsole, for example the heel. It helps to reduce excessive wear.

• Plus3

  Plus3 refers to a 3mm raise of the heel compared to the forefoot. The effect this has is to reduce strain on the Achilles tendon. As women's hormonal levels fluctuate during their monthly cycle, the Achilles tendon becomes lax or stretches, increasing the potential for injury. Plus3 reduces the load and tension on the Achilles tendon and reduces the risk of injuries.

• Soft Top DuoMax

  Soft Top Duomax is a softer top layer of the Duomax midsole. Together with the Gender Specific Space Trusstic, Soft Top Duomax accommodates for fluctuations in women's hormonal levels which cause the foot arches to be lowered, creating more pressure on the plantar fascia. By using a lower-density material, Soft Top Duomax provides a more comfortable transition from heel strike to toe-off without sacrificing stability.

• Solyte

  Solyte is a proprietary cushioning material that provides an exceptionally lightweight midsole with excellent bounce-back and durability.
