GEL-ODYSSEY WR

Under the hood

• 3M Reflectivity

  Special reflective material which enhances visibility in poor light. 3m Scotchlite is a registered trademark of the 3M Company.

• Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning

  Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning refers to the inclusion of specially formulated Solyte material in the forefoot of the female shoe. Since this material is less dense than the traditional material it offers greater impact absorption and more bounce for female runners.

• Trusstic

  Plastic bridge under the arch which gives the shoe strength and stability without loss of flexibility.

• DuoMax Support System

  Dual density midsole material positioned sport specifically which enhances support and stability by helping to correct the degree and velocity of pronation.

• AHAR (ASICS High Abrasion Resistant rubber)

  Tough material placed in critical areas of heavy contact on the shoe for exceptional durability.

• Solyte Midsole Material

  Spongy layer between the sole and upper designed to absorb shock and cushion the foot. Solyte is a lighter material than SpEVA and EVA and features enhanced durability.

• Guidance Line

  Guidance Line places a visible groove in the mid and outsole that follows the foot's center of pressure from heel to toe. The result is a more adaptive running platform, creating a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off with each stride. The Guidance Line thus helps runners to maintain a natural, efficient gait, especially over long distances.
