Asics Fuze X Running Shoes Versatile and polished, the fuzeX provides optimal cushioning with a contemporary appeal. Introducing ASICS' newest midsole technology: the proprietary fuzeGEL, a fusion of GEL and foam for the ultimate rearfoot shock absorption that transfers to the forefoot during take off. This limited edition offers a homage to Great Britain with the colours from the Union Jack flag taking centre stage. Seamless Upper Seamless uppers will encase each foot in streamlined comfort. The no-sew construction features for an irritation-free fit, because we know how rubbing and blisters can ruin your day. Mesh elements increase airflow to create a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. Overlays wrap the midfoot to provide support and promote complete lockdown; they help to anchor you to the midsole and reduce in-shoe slippage so that you can enjoy smooth, distraction-free strides. FuzeGEL Midsole A removable Comfordry sockliner lies atop a lightweight midsole, implemented to supply an extra layer of plush and hygienic underfoot comfort. This premium product features higher rebound properties but also provides excellent moisture-management and a high level of breathability; so you stay damp-free and comfortable on hot, longer distance days. A low-profile FuzeGEL platform runs through the entire length of the shoe without adding weight. This clever fusion of GEL technology and foam creates adaptable comfort, tuned to provide rearfoot shock absorption that shifts to forefoot bounce-back. So your joints are protected at heel-strike and your stride is energised at toe-off. AHAR Outsole An AHAR (Asics High Abrasion Rubber) outsole completes the Fuze X. Placed in critical areas, the durable compound supplies sticky grip on wet and dry road surfaces. Forefoot flex grooves exist to promote natural bending of the foot, for a barefoot feel and uncaged movement.
