The GEL-QUANTUM KINETIC sneaker combines experimental engineering with functional details for everyday scenarios. Its performance capability is met with technical components to create a modern design that’s built for urban exploration. Synthetic leathers and various mesh panels are layered throughout the upper to improve comfort. Its advanced aesthetics draw inspiration from iconic ASICS running franchises, like the GEL-NIMBUS, GEL-KUSHON, GEL-KINETIC, and GEL-KINSEI series'. Asics leveraged the expertise of the ASICS Institute of Sport Science to construct the midsole. It features our Scutoid GEL technology that has a closely packed 3D geometry and an off-axis structure. This arrangement improves shock absorption in daily scenarios, like commuting in the city or standing for long durations.
