Asics Gel-Venture 8 Women's Trail Running Shoes
The Gel-Venture 8 running shoe is designed for the great outdoors. This versatile shoe is excellent for trail runs, light hiking or exploring a new city.
Breathable Mesh Upper
A mesh upper encases each foot in a durable, breathable element of comfort. The porous mesh is extremely breathable, which allows cool air to efficiently circulate the feet, and removes uncomfortable heat build-up, creating a cool, healthy environment that your feet will thrive in. Airflow and ventilation provide you with the ability to go further, and for longer, whilst being extremely comfortable. The reduced overlays add durability, whilst remaining lightweight. The overlay reinforcements swathe the midfoot and forefoot to improve stability. This is finished with a lacing system, which gives you a complete, lockdown, and anchors you to the midsole and reduces in-shoe slippage so that you can carry on your smooth transitions.
EVA MidsoleA platform of EVA resides underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as they strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. Exceptionally lightweight, the EVA ensures long-lasting cushioning to keep you comfortable on long-distance days. EVA is extremely firm, which will absorb shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole. The energy produced from this will also be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in their step. Embedded within this midsole platform is a Rearfoot GEL Cushioning System; implemented to attenuate shock, it spares your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces.
Trail Specific OutsoleKeeping you firmly in control on the trails, the rubber outsole can form a solid connection with a wide range of different surfaces. The rubber is also extremely durable and abrasion-resistant, which will protect itself over a long period of time, whilst maintaining its high level of performance. As well as this, re-engineered lugs in the outsole offer better traction on off-road surfaces. The aggressive, multidirectional lugs offer unprecedented traction for running up and down hills so nothing can get in the way of you giving your ultimate performance.
