Description
The GT-4000™ 4 (Wide) shoe is one of the most stable shoes in the ASICS® running collection. Featuring a softer and smoother design, this shoe is functional for overpronators seeking a more supportive and cushioned step.
The midsole implements a FF BLAST™ cushioning unit and PureGEL™ technology. These features help provide a more energized toe-off with cloud-like softness underfoot.
Meanwhile, the LITETRUSS® midsole technology improves stability, creating a smoother and more balanced stride.
