Midsole

The AMPLIFOAM™ cushioning material provides good cushioning and energy return and a super comfortable feeling under the foot. It has a lower density and is formulated to increase softness. It gives the best in all six aspects of cushioning: impact absorption, fit response, pressure relief, energy return, durability and weight. In addition to the foam, GEL™ technology has been implemented in the midsole to soften the landing and improve shock absorption. The shoe also has the GUIDANCE LINE™ technology, an arc-shaped groove. This groove allows the shoe sole to bend while running. The goal is to stimulate the flexion and extension of the foot at the toe base joints. The benefits of this technology? A better fit, less strain on the feet and more comfort while running. On top of all this, extra step-in comfort and long-lasting cushioning are provided by the ORTHOLITE™ sockliner. This air-permeable sole ensures that your feet stay cool while running.

Upper

Thanks to the jacquard mesh upper with textured yarns, the shoe is highly breathable and allows sweat to escape, keeping you dry all the time. Because the mesh follows every shape of the foot, it provides comfort and support. ASICS not only makes its products more sustainable, but also recycles much of its uppers.

Outsole

In addition to flex grooves to create more flexibility in the forefoot, the rubber outsole provides traction and grip. Run at your own pace on the ASICS CONTEND 8 GS and push your limits!
