ASICS Women's GT-1000 11 Running Shoe

The upper of these shoes is engineered with mesh, which helps to provide a comfortable fit and enhanced breathability. The LITETRUSS technology employed in their design helps to create a more supportive stride while effectively controlling overpronation. The FLYTEFOAM cushioning system offers lightweight impact absorption without compromising durability.

These shoes are intended for use on the road. They have an 8mm heel drop, and weigh approximately 225g or 7.9 oz. They are classified as providing neutral support, with extra cushioning.

There are three main categories of foot types, each with distinct characteristics:

Underpronation (also known as supination) is characterized by the outside of the heel making contact with the ground at an increased angle, resulting in minimal pronation. This can lead to increased shock transmitted to the lower leg. During push-off, those with this foot type tend to experience greater pressure on the outer toes. Common issues associated with underpronation include plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. Individuals with this foot type typically have high arches.

The neutral foot type lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward to absorb impact on the body. During push-off, the weight is evenly distributed across the front of the foot. While those with a neutral foot type are less likely to sustain injuries due to effective shock absorption, it is not impossible for them to get hurt.

Overpronation occurs when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward excessively, transferring excess weight. This can lead to pressure primarily on the big toe and second toe during push-off. Common issues associated with overpronation include shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. Individuals with this foot type typically have low arches or flat feet.

In terms of care instructions, these shoes are machine washable. The sole material is rubber, while the outer material is mesh.

The closure type is lace-up, which helps to provide a secure and adjustable fit. Overall, these shoes are designed to deliver a comfortable, breathable, and supportive experience for the wearer, catering to a range of foot types and their specific needs.
