ASICS Men’s Gel-Contend 7 Running Shoes provide excellent cushioning for runners seeking a combination of durability and support. Engineered mesh upper improves airflow GEL technology cushioning provides excellent shock absorption Guidance Line midsole technology enhances gait efficiency AmpliFoam midsole provides flexibility and comfort Synthetic fibre stitching on the overlays improves support Flex grooves in the outsole improve flexibility Forefoot outsole wrap improves lateral stability Ortholite sockliner Designed with an engineered mesh upper, ASICS Men’s Gel-Contend 7 Running Shoes stretch with the foot’s natural motion and creates an excellent fit. The synthetic stitching on the overlays helps create a more supportive foothold. By following a more sustainable design approach, these shoes also use fewer resources to colour the sockliner. The reliable cushioning stems from rearfoot GEL technology, a durable AMPLIFOAM midsole and an OrthoLite sockliner that are each designed to improve comfort and provide excellent shock absorption. Following the natural progression of the foot, GUIDANCE LINE technology helps generate a more natural and consistent stride. Additionally, the flex grooves in the outsole increase the shoe’s flexibility during your step – creating a more natural feel from footstrike to toe-off.
