ASICS Women's GT-1000 12 Running Shoe

The engineered mesh upper is designed to provide a comfortable fit and advanced breathability. LITETRUSS technology helps produce a more supportive stride while keeping overpronation at bay. The FLYTEFOAM technology provides lightweight cushioning and impact absorption while still being durable.

This item is suitable for road use and has an 8 mm heel drop. The weight of the shoe is 235g / 8.2 oz, and it offers neutral support with extra cushioning.

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

Underpronation (also known as supination) is when the outside of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. This results in pressure on the outer toes during push-off, and can lead to conditions like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. Individuals with this foot type typically have high arches.

The neutral foot type is when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, effectively absorbing impact on the body. Push-off is experienced with even distribution from the front of the foot. While getting injured is less likely due to the effective shock absorption, it is not impossible. Individuals with this foot type typically have normal-sized arches.

Overpronation is when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, transferring excess weight. This results in pressure mainly on the big toe and second toe during push-off, and can lead to conditions like shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. Individuals with this foot type typically have low arches or flat feet.

The care instructions for this product state that it is machine washable. The origin of the product is either made in the USA or imported, and the sole and outer material are both made of rubber.
