Gel-Super J33 Running Shoe - Men's

Sleek yet simple, the Asics Men's Gel-Super J33 Running Shoe is a no-nonsense running shoe for setting 10K PR's or throwing down some serious speed sessions at the local track. Aerodynamic yet not minimalist, this speedy training shoe uses FluidAxis engineering for natural movements in every direction, not just heel to toe. Not a pushover by any stretch of the imagination, the J33 propels you forward, hopefully faster, while protecting your heel with the reason you first adored Asics: gel cushioning.
Put together sans seams, the open mesh upper shields your little piggies from road debris while letting fresh air in to keep things from getting too fetid too fast. The F.A.S.T. heel external support keeps your heel firmly fixed in place without adding extra weight or altering your gait. FluidAxis engineering aligns flex-favoring grooves with the joints in your foot. Now your foot and the shoe can move as one, not two discreet bodies.
The Solyte midsole minimizes weight while maximizing energy return for a slightly springy feel. The 6mm drop nicely splits the difference between zero-drop shoes and traditionally heel-stacked running shoes. Your move to mid-foot striking won't be impeded yet your heel-heavy gait won't take a hit either. Asics High-Abrasion Rubber (AHAR) fills in the sole in high-wear areas to keep the weight off without sacrificing durability and stability on slippery sidewalks.
