ASICS Gel-Pulse 13 GORE-TEX Women's Running Shoes

The Gel-Pulse 13 GORE-TEX Shoe offers good comfort for wet-weather runs. It creates the cushioning you need to keep your mind focused on your workout and not your not. GORE-TEX technology repels water in rainy conditions, keeping your feet dry and ready for the miles ahead.

Jacquard Mesh Upper

To provide an optimal amount of breathability, the Gel-Pulse 13 shoes have an exceptionally engineered jacquard mesh upper, which will improve the airflow to your feet. It will provide a perfect climate for your feet, even when under intense workout pressure. The forgiving fit and soft fabric construction create the ultimate comfortable environment for your feet, allowing toes to flex naturally and feeling pleasant on. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. A traditional lacing system anchors the shoe to the foot securely and adjustably, for the perfect custom fit that will give you better control and stability.

Amplifoam, Gel Midsole

The Midsole of the Gel-Pulse 13 contains ASICS' groundbreaking AmpliFoam technology. Designed to work with all 33 joints in the foot, this technology provides soft cushioning that helps keep you feeling healthy and happy. The Amplifoam unit is engineered to maintain durability at softer densities, providing better flexibility, comfort and platform adaptability - ideal for natural running. Lightweight and resilient, Amplifoam spares your joints as you footstrike on unforgiving surfaces. Further embedded within this platform is the Rearfoot GEL Cushioning System. This technology works to reduce shock during the impact phase, sparing your joints as you sprint down onto hard, uneven terrain and allowing for a peaceful transition to mid-stance. Guidance line technology within the midsole increases gait efficiency, so you experience less fatigue and less energy will be wasted. The vertical flex groove decouples the tooling along the line of progression to provide a smooth transition through the gait cycle. Completing the midsole is an ortholite sock liner that increases underfoot comfort and provides effective moisture management.

AHAR Plus Outsole

Supreme grip and traction are guaranteed with the AHAR outsole. ASICS' high abrasion rubber is made with a tough rubber compound, which is used in heavy-contact or high wear areas to help keep the shoe strong wear, after wear, after wear. This high abrasion outsole provides a strong grip and works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. Strategically positioned in critical areas of the outsole, this exceptionally durable compound is 50% more durable than standard ASICS High Abrasion Rubber, for maximum protection and durability. Creating a strong bond with the ground beneath it, the outsole allows you to stay in full control at all times. Flex grooves also adorn the outsole to provide added traction underfoot, allowing for natural foot flexion - for easy, unhindered paces.
