Asics GT-1000 11 GORE-TEX Women's Running Shoes
Our key focus for the GT-1000 11 GORE-TEX shoe was to make it softer and smoother. With GORE-TEX paneling on the upper, this shoe helps prevent rain and snow from entering the shoe's interior.
GORE-TEX Upper
The upper has been reimagined with a new engineered mesh that adjusts to your foot's natural shape while providing a comfortable midfoot hold. Constructed using a breathable mesh, the ASICS GT-1000 11 Running Shoes encase each foot in comfort. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The mesh upper creates a perfect microclimate for your feet to thrive in. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. Overlays have been used on the upper to increase structure and support. They have been placed around the midfoot and the toe for long-lasting comfort and guidance. An OrthoLite X-30 sock liner provides soft step-in comfort. Completing the upper is a lacing system that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage for a distraction-free fit.
FlyteFoam Midsole
FlyteFoam EVA has been tuned with a lower density than the previous version for a softer feel underfoot and cushioning comfort. It absorbs shock as you strike down on unforgiving ground, reducing the stress and strain put on the foot and joints, thus minimising the risk of injury. Teamed with GEL technology, this combination creates softer landings and smoother transitions. LITETRUSS technology is placed in the midsole's inside angle to reduce pronation. It helps produce a more supportive stride while keeping overpronation at bay.
Solid Rubber Outsole
This style includes a solid rubber outsole, combined with a medial wrap-up, for enhanced durability of the shoes. The rubber outsole can form a solid bond with the ground beneath it to ensure traction and grip on road surfaces. As well as this, the rubber outsole is highly durable to ensure long-lasting wear. The durable nature of the rubber will not wear down easily so these shoes will withstand long training sessions over and over again. Completing the outsole are flex grooves that assist with grip and form a solid base to push from. The grooves allow the whole of the outsole to naturally flex where the foot flexes to increase comfort as well as performance.
