introduction
The Gel-Foundation 8 is a moderate featured shoe engineered for severe overpronators. This bargain shoe is designed to support high mileage or larger runners and has a semi-curved shape.

cushioning
Rearfoot Gel cushioning system is a medium sized silicone based gel that attenuates shock during impact. Forefoot Gel cushioning system is a silicone based gel that attenuates shock during toe-off.

midsole

SpEVA is a full length midsole material and is Asics' mid-level midsole. Although SpEVA is not as durable and lightweight as Solyte, it has increased energy return compared to that of compression molded EVA.
DuoMax Support System extends from the heel to the medial midfoot and is a dual density midsole that is designed to reduce excess pronation.
Trusstic System is located at the bottom of the midsole and is made from thermal plastic. It reduces the weight of the sole while decreasing torsion between the rearfoot and forefoot.

upper

Open mesh encompasses the majority of the upper and offers breathability to keep the foot cool.
Asics logo is located at both the medial and lateral sides of the upper to keep the shoe snug to the foot.
Personal Heel Fit (PHF) is a two layer memory foam lining in the heel collar which creates a personalized fit.
ComforDry Sockliner is made from an anti-bacterial material that not only reduces odor and moisture but also provides additional cushioning.
Solyte 65 Last is located in the rear portion of the shoe and has a high density to deliver the least soft feel under the foot. Traditional strobel last completes the forefoot of the shoe.

outsole
Asics High Abrasion Rubber (AHAR) is located in the heel and is a carbon rubber that offers exceptional durability. DuraSponge is located in the forefoot and is a blown AHAR compound that delivers cushioning, responsiveness, and flexibility.
