Running Centers is among the first stores to have the all new – ASICS GEL-Kinsei 3

The Asics Gel Kinsei 3 - An “adaptive running shoe” featuring Personal Heel Fit, ComforDry Sockliner and the external Pebax Heel Clutching System.

Imagine a shoe that reacts automatically to the step of each runner, individually. That is the impetus behind the newest shoe from Asics, the GEL-Kinsei 3. The Personal Heel Fit (PHF) uses 2 layers of memory foam to match the contours of the heel, creating a custom fit that is seamless. This, along with the ComforDry sock liner, absorbing the moisture from the foot alleviate the most common causes of foot irritation in runners. No detail was left unnoticed, all the way down to the lace style. The standard approach of the straight down lace was altered to create an asymmetrical design that conforms better to the shape of your foots bone structure. New, on this GEL-Kinsei 3 is the external Pebax Heel Clutching System which works like an exoskeleton, providing support while clearing the heal area of a bulky internal structure. This lightens the shoe and reduces blistering and chafing. There is a cushioning system that is featured in the Discrete Forefoot area which uses a twist GEL cushioning system. This system absorbs shock while promoting the proper movement in the toe-off stage. The outsole gives a comfortable and soft run. The GEL system is what has been at the core of the success for the Asics GEL systems. The GEL is dense in some areas and less dense in others where you need to bend and move.

All these features make the Asics Gel Kinsei 3 the most comfortable and highly acclaimed shoe, brought to you by
ASICS and available to you at Running Centers. Running Centers is proud to be one of the first to feature the new Asics Gel Kinsei 3. It is expected to be available October 2nd, before it will be available in most other retail stores.
