The ASICS GlideRide takes efficiency to the next level.
ASICS gave the GlideRide a boost by carving its midsole into a rocker shape, which ASICS calls the Glidesole. The curved shape helps reduce ankle flexion, which in turn reduces the amount of work your other leg muscles have to do to keep you moving forward.
The result? You run farther with less effort.
Designers used a cushy and responsive Flytefoam midsole that dampens impact and gives you a smooth ride. A touch of Gel cushioning under the heel also helps keep your body from feeling the pounding of a long run.
In the ASICS GlideRide review, Fleet Feet testers say the shoe marries and accommodating fit with clever technology to deliver an easy ride.
