ASICS Gel-Blackheath 4 Hockey Shoes

The GEL-Blackheath 4 is a lightweight and breathable hockey shoe. Boasting a new outsole configuration that has a multi-studded appearance with an increased number of lateral forefoot flex grooves for increased flexibility during propulsion. Tough and durable P-Guard combined with a wrapped and stitched forefoot outsole helps the shoe to withstand the wear and tear associated with toe drag.

Mesh and Synthetic Upper

The perfect combination of durability and breathability, the mesh and synthetic upper of the ASICS GEL-Blackheath 4 Hockey Shoes are engineered to withstand the rough and tumble of training to see your little ones through to match day. The mesh encourages cool air to permeate the fabric, removing uncomfortable heat build up to create a cool, comfortable environment that feet can thrive in. The synthetic medial and heel wraps provide support during lateral movements and essential stability when making those all-important shots and passes. An additional P-Guard increase the durability and protection against toe drag. Finished with asymmetrical lacing the anatomically correct lacing system reduces irritation and discomfort providing focussed gameplay through increased comfort and the optimum fit.

GEL Cushioned Midsole

Engineered with rearfoot and forefoot gel cushioning technology, the ASICS GEL-Blackheath Hockey Shoes attenuate shock impact when striking down on hard surfaces sparing growing joints and reducing the risk of injury. The rearfoot and forefoot gel encourage movement in multiple planes as the foot transitions through a smooth gait cycle. The DUOMAX dual-density midsole system is positioned to provide enhanced support and stability during fast lateral movements. Additionally, a moulded compound under the midfoot area provides a controlled and controlled midsole; this provides improved arch support and torsion stability ideal for feet that are still growing. The midsole is completed with solyte; lighter than the EVA and SpEVA+ the solyte midsole provide improved cushioning with more durability ensuring cushioned comfort from training to match day.

Multi-Function Cleat Outsole

The durable rubber outsole provides traction and stability, with a new outsole configuration designed to increase flexibility during propulsion and rotational movements. Multi-functioning cleats provide unprecedented grip designed to release during rotational movements and quick direction changes for fast footing, stability, and agility. An increased number of lateral forefoot flex grooves increase the flexibility of the outsole during propulsion.
