In the ASICS GEL shoe range at JD Sports Australia, you’ll find all the best sneaker releases from the brand, including the GEL-QUANTUM 360, GEL NYC, and GEL 1130. These items of footwear all have one thing in common: they incorporate GEL, an innovative technology designed to give the wearer the maximum level of comfort. If you’ve been looking for a pair of trainers to improve your running performance or simply to make your daily activities more comfortable, these shoes are exactly what you need.
What Is ASICS GEL Technology?
Released in 1986, ASICS GEL technology was presented as the next major development in running shoes. It not only provided shock absorption but also enhanced stability, ensuring that athletes of all levels, professional and amateur, could push themselves—and their knees—to the limit. This was achieved by taking advantage of silicone gel, which was commonly employed to limit the vibrations of various machines. Notably, during the research stage, it was discovered that silicone could prevent raw eggs from breaking, even when dropped from a height of 18 metres.
The primary benefit of ASICS GEL is its ability to reduce the impact on the body when participating in physical activity. Through the inclusion of this technology in different areas of the shoe, such as the rearfoot and forefoot, wearers receive complete protection, no matter their style of movement. This transfers to all sorts of movement, not just running, so people who enjoy walking or taking part in sports can reap the rewards.
Which Shoes Use ASICS GEL?
The first runner to feature ASICS GEL was the GT-II. Today, the technology is used across dozens of fan-favourite collections, from the GEL-KAYANO 30 to the GEL-QUANTUM line. With each new iteration, the technology has evolved in different ways—for example, by adding an additional layer of foam. Check out the JD AU complete selection to see which other shoes are included!
