Over the years, the Asics 2000 series has built a reputation among fans of the brand as the best for everyday running. She became the leader in sales, and several advantages of this shoe undoubtedly helped in this. Let's take a closer look at this series of sneakers.
Description of sneakers in this series
Top
The upper is very lightweight and comfortable. As an innovation, the company used a seamless upper construction. As a result, welded pads will reduce the risk of blisters or chafing, as well as accidental skin injuries that often occur from protruding seams. This is especially true during long workouts in hot conditions.
Also, sneakers in this series are incredibly soft and smooth on the inside. Therefore, the possibility of chafing is minimized.
The upper is coated with a DuoMax waterproof membrane, which is designed to improve the protection of the shoe from external moisture, while without compromising moisture and heat transfer.
In addition, the manufacturer has redesigned the upper heel. This allows for a more comfortable fit, as well as improved protection for the Achilles tendon, in addition to preventing foot slippage.
Sole
The manufacturer has made these sneakers with a two-layer sole. So, two layers of light springy SoLyte foam are presented. Each of these layers has its own density. In addition, the width and the peculiarity of the arrangement of the layers are made taking into account gender differences in the running biomechanics of the stronger and the fair sex.
Also, a re-profiled outsole and an improved tread pattern will add confidence to the runner when running on different surfaces. The outsole is spiked for the best traction and secure control.
