Asics GEL-TRABUCO 9

This new model is more friendly and more runner-friendly than its predecessors, but without losing durability and comfort. With the Gel-Trabuco 9, Asics returns to its philosophy of a shoe that works for everything.

The maximum cushioning Gel-Trabuco 9 is created with the latest technologies from the Japanese brand

The midsole features, of course, FlyteFoam technology combined with GEL cushioning in the heel for smoother transitions, excellent cushioning, and great responsiveness.

It also includes the Duomax support system, so these shoes will give you more stability, preventing overpronation .

This model weighs 30g less than its predecessor, making it the perfect choice for trail runners who need lightweight shoes. This has been achieved by redesigning the upper, which also incorporates 3D overlays . This updated upper also facilitates air entry and exit, increasing breathability. And all these modifications to the upper are combined with a very attractive design.

One of the most important parts of a trail running shoe is the outsole. The Gel-Trabuco 9 features AsicsGrip rubber and raised lugs on the lateral and medial sides, all with the goal of providing excellent traction on slippery terrain.

Apart from all this, this model has a rock protection plate , so you can run on rougher terrain without any problem.

These shoes are ideal for neutral or pronated runners of medium to heavy weight . They can be used for running from medium distances to ultras.
