The ASICS Magic Speed 2 are neutral competition shoes. This model from ASICS completes the competition category at the brand. The Magic Speed 2 is designed for runners who want to get the most out of their training and competitions. With the updated fit, the shoe is even more versatile. The Engineered Mesh upper fits snugly around the feet. It is lightweight and soft to the touch. It is designed to keep feet cool and comfortable, thanks to high breathability. At least 50% of the shoe's upper is made from recycled materials to reduce waste and carbon emissions. The midsole features GUIDESOLE technology combined with an asymmetric carbon plate. This helps propel your foot forward, which saves more energy during the run. Thanks to GUIDESOLE technology, ankle flexion and leg strain are reduced. The Magic Speed 2 features FF BLAST PLUS cushioning under the heel and forefoot. This material is lightweight and increases shock absorption and responsiveness. The cushioning also ensures a soft landing and a responsive handling. In addition, the ASICSGRIP rubber outsole offers a lot of grip and extra traction.
