ASICS GEL-KINSEI BLAST LE 2 Product Code: 1011B592 300 Description: The GEL-KINSEI BLAST LE 2 shoe was created for runners and distance runners who value a smooth ride. For this shoe, our goal was to create a design that looks just as good on the street as it does on race day. The performance-inspired Nexkin mesh upper provides enhanced breathability to keep your feet cool. GEL technology paired with FF BLAST cushioning delivers plush cushioning with every stride. The shoe delivers a smooth transition from footstrike to toe-off. The midsole's shape is inspired by the curve of a samurai sword. A Pebax plate in the midfoot redirects power forward, increasing your speed. Pronation : Designed for Neutral Supination Neutral Foot Type Normal Arch Push-Off Weight distribution across the forefoot is even. Foot Contact: The outside of the heel contacts the ground first, followed by rolling inward (pronation) to absorb shock and support the body weight. Supination Foot Type High Arch Push-Off Pressure is exerted on the smaller toes on the outside of the foot. Foot Contact: The outside of the heel strikes the ground at an increased angle with little to no normal pronation, causing high shock transfer to the lower leg. Nexkin mesh upper: Increases airflow to help feet stay cool. The main upper is made from at least 20% recycled materials to reduce waste and carbon emissions. The sockliner is manufactured using a unique solution dyeing method that reduces water consumption by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by approximately 45% compared to typical dyeing technologies. Pebax propulsion plate: Helps redirect energy forward while providing a feeling of acceleration. FF BLAST technology: Provides cushioning, lightweight shock absorption, and a responsive push-off. FF BLAST PLUS technology: Cushioning provides lightweight shock absorption and good durability. Rear and forefoot GEL technology: Improves shock absorption and provides a softer footstrike.
