Originally designed in conjunction with the ASICS Institute of Sports Science (ISS) in Japan, the METARUN™ SPS shoe originally debuted as a long distance running style to help runners go farther, while making a breakthrough in technology and comfort. FLYTEFOAM® technology in the midsole is 55% lighter than industry standard EVA foams, while the ADAPTTRUSS™ technology, METACLUTCH™ technology and X-GEL® technology work in unison with each other to promote lightweight stability and energized cushioning. Equipped with the same advanced componentry that’s made to assist long distance runners, the METARUN™ SPS shoe is equally suited to stomp the streets with a blend of sportswear and technical design nuances.
Optimized Upper: featuring a glove-like, one-layer Jacquard Mesh and MetaClutch exoskeleton external heel counter with built-in memory foam
FLYTEFOAM® Midsole Technology: Our FLYTEFOAM® technology provides exceptional bounce back and responsiveness no matter the distance, utilizing organic super fibers to help reduce packing out that traditionally happens with softer, low density foams.
I.G.S® (Impact Guidance System) Technology: ASICS design philosophy that employs linked componentry to enhance the foot’s natural gait from heel strike to toe-off.
Ortholite® Sockliner: Moisture management (Ortholite is a registered trademark of ATP Manufacturing LLC).
Heel Clutching System™ Technology: Exoskeletal heel counter provides improved support and creates improved heel fitting environment.
AdaptTruss: newly patented and revolutionary carbon reinforced adaptive stability system
Sloped DUOMAX® Technology: dual density midsole that adjusts smoothly to dynamic motion
X-GEL™ Technology: high-tech hybrid gel
