ASICS GEL-Excite 6 SP Running Shoes

The GEL-EXCITE 6 SP running shoe from ASICS is designed to put a real spring in your step, helping you go further than you thought possible. This new update is a great choice for low mileage runners seeking a great fit and cushioned ride, as well as a design created with everyday usage and versatility in mind.

Jacquard Mesh Upper

The Gel-Excite 6 upper is constructed of a Jacquard mesh material that encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh works incredibly hard to allow air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing you with a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The mesh is also extremely comfortable next to the foot decreasing distractions and irritation that can occur on longer runs. This mesh differs from the rest as it enhances the fitting, forming to the shape of your foot inside the upper and increasing comfort to the next level.

Additionally, the upper provides you with an internal heel counter that works incredibly hard to provide a locked-in fit. This innovative technology prevents in shoe slipping which in turn prevents hot spots, irritation and chafing. Lastly, Residing in the upper but playing a vital role in cushioning along with the midsole is the Ortholite sockliner. The sockliner increases the cushioning next to the foot, providing the first layer of comfort.

Amplifoam Midsole

The midsole technology consists of an Amplifoam unit which 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 strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. In addition, a rearfoot gel cushioning system resides in the heel to provide exceptional shock absorption from impact forces during the heel strike phase of the gait cycle. The gel spares your joints from unforgiving surfaces as you pound in the miles.

Durable Rubber Outsole

The durable rubber used on the outsole of the shoe is abrasion-resistant which will prevent any damage from occurring over a long period of time exposed to hard ground. The rubber compound offers a higher density of rubber in high impact areas of the outsole where the most wear occurs throughout the miles, this helps reduce the wear and tear allowing you to run harder and for longer.
