ASICS Men's Gel-Venture 8 Running Shoes

This item features a durable upper construction with synthetic overlays stitched into the breathable mesh upper in strategic areas for added support and durability. The excellent traction provided by this product is designed for wear on concrete or trail surfaces. The outsole lugs have been engineered to help runners generate better traction on both uphill and downhill sections of a trail.

Cushioning is a key aspect of this product, with GEL technology placed directly under the rearfoot for excellent shock absorption at the runner's point of impact. This item is suitable for trail running.

The heel drop of this shoe is 10 mm, and the weight is 354 g/12.5 oz. It is designed for neutral support, with regular cushioning.

Regarding foot types, underpronation is characterized by the outside of the heel hitting the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. The push-off experience for those with underpronation involves pressure on the outer toes, and potential injuries include plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. Individuals with this foot type typically have high arches.

In contrast, the neutral foot type is characterized by the foot landing on the outside of the heel and then rolling inward, effectively absorbing impact on the body. The push-off experience for those with a neutral foot type involves even distribution from the front of the foot. While getting hurt is less likely due to effective shock absorption, it is not impossible.

Overpronation is characterized by the foot landing on the outside of the heel and then rolling inward, transferring excess weight. The push-off experience for those with overpronation involves pressure mainly on the big toe and second toe. Potential injuries include shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. Individuals with this foot type typically have low arches or flat feet.

The fabric type of this item is synthetic and mesh, and the care instructions indicate that it can be machine washed. The product is of imported origin and has a lace-up closure type.
