LessorCare also helps lessors to maximise the terminal asset value of their engine inventory when they decide to finally withdraw them from service. The midsole unit is layered with a combination of EVA foam and GEL™ technology cushioning that deliver a more responsive stride and improved shock absorption. This is quite a low change which is great if, like me, you’re running in the upper Northern Hemisphere. Following a more sustainable design approach, this shoe also uses fewer resources to colour the sock liner.

It felt like they were just sinking into the cushioning of the midsole which resulted in higher impact. With previous versions of the ASICS GT 1000 series I’ve felt issues with heel lock, while not too drastic, the shoe used to be noticeably loose at the back.In addition, in this new FlyteFoam variety, cellulose microfibers replace standard Kevlar and PET fibers to reinforce the particle walls of the foam. We now go directly to discover the midsole of this running shoe, which combines the two most advanced technologies of the Japanese brand. Using AHAR (ASICS High Abrasion Rubber) and AHARPLUS, ASICS deliver a really long lasting and grippy outsole. They’ve managed to bring the weight down, while keeping an excellent level of support and stability for over-pronators. This makes the shoe seem perfect when in sub 10°C conditions, but I can imagine it being a bit too much for warmer climates.

How your foot contacts the groundThe foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot. If you want an overhaul for which you know that you will only pay for the parts and labour your engine needs, then a Time and Material overhaul may be the right choice. This technology consists of a firm foam density placed in the middle part of the midsole, which also helps to improve stability. Designed for the runner with an active lifestyle, they're seeking a lightweight everyday trainer with excellent cushioning. Seeking a cleaner aesthetic, Doug now works mostly in fashion and sport, opting for outdoor locations rather than a studio.It provides all of the risk transfer characteristics of “traditional” TotalCare, but recognises that what you really want is to minimise costs, whilst releasing all of the engine life you own before the aircraft is retired from service. These systems, in combination, attenuate the shock during the impact and propulsion phases of the foot. It’s really great to see ASICS taking on board comments like this to improve the overall feel of the shoe. Lastly, the DUOMAX™ support system consists of a firmer density of foam placed on the medial side of the midsole to help reduce the foot's pronounced inward roll (overpronation) while improving stability. As for the upper of the shoe, we find in this one a mesh that has been composed with a special design so that it can adapt and adjust to the natural shape of your foot.
