Description

That said, the brand has also expanded into lightweight, responsive racing shoes and even trail shoes, too. Therefore, the new Asics Gel Venture 9 has trail-specific outsole patterns and improved overall comfort, stability, and ride. Notably, venture 8 had a good width, and Asics had no reason to change anything. When it comes to performance footwear for active lifestyles and athletics, there are few other brands that do it better than ASICS. Since the 1940s, ASICS has been helping push the footwear industry forward with unique designs, innovative technologies, and a classic, unmistakable aesthetic. Wear them around the house: without going outside and getting them dirty (so you can still return them if necessary), wear your new shoes around the house to see how they make your feet feel.

Trail runners should be most focused on the sole of the shoe, this is what you’re (generally) paying extra for. Try them on in the afternoon: throughout the day, your feet swell. So, to get the most accurate fit, it’s best to try new shoes on after they’ve swelled sometime in the afternoon. Believe it or not, ASICS is an acronym for the Latin phrase anima sana in corpore sano, which roughly translates to “you should pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body.”

Rearfoot Gel Technology: silicone gel integrated into the rear of the shoe helps lessen the impact from heel striking and helps your foot transition smoothly into the rest of its step progression.

Asics puts in a fairly aggressive tread pattern on the outsole that features ‘V’ shapes in alternating orientations. This ensures forward and rear motion grip is maximized. Amplifoam is a midsole technology that is designed to dampen vibration and absorb the impacts that come with trail running. Compared to mother midsole foams, Amplifoam is slightly lower (or lighter) in density, meaning it feels super cushy. The EVA foam in the midsole is maybe a concern, as I had scuffs and mild amounts of abrasive marks on them which may not bode well for more aggressive trail runners. Asics has cooked up quite a few proprietary features, and you’ll see many different terms when browsing the company’s running shoe lineup. To help you get more insight into these features, compare models, and find the right shoe, here’s a deeper dive on the main Asics running shoe tech to know. Gel CushioningI also love the consistent foot strikes associated with Asics Gel Venture 9. The reason is that Asics updated the outsole by making the lugs larger, more aggressive, and more detailed. For this reason, there is improved traction. The midsole is concocted with the Amplifoam midsole foam with a rear gel technology. Those who have tried the Asics Gel Content 8have experienced the comfort of Amplifoam midsole foam. Utilizing this foam in Asics Venture 9 has given this shoe a substantially soft ride needed in a trail running shoe. Though it is not as responsive as the Ego Max midsole foam in the Altra Mont Blanc trail shoe, the beefed-up Amplifoam midsole offers sufficient comfort and rebound, especially for a heel striker. Still, the ride is significantly firm but stable. Avoid using them as everyday shoes. You can preserve the outsole by not wearing your trail runners all the time. If you are on the hunt for a simple and affordable running shoe that gets the job done, the Asics Gel Venture takes it easy on your bank account.
