The meaning of cushioning moves forward on the GEL-QUANTUM 360 VII sneaker. Its upper features utility details, like a rubberized mesh, no-sew accents, and rip-stop paneling to resist the elements. This shoe's GEL technology is structured to create better shock absorption underfoot. Its scutoid shape also allows you to move more naturally during everyday scenarios (like on-foot commuting or exploring new environments). Meanwhile, the FF BLAST cushioning in the heel has been fine-tuned to give this shoe better rearfoot shock absorption.
