The GLIDERIDE™ TOKYO shoe helps you run longer while expending less energy. Featuring a limited model offering, this iteration is displayed with a Sunrise Red colorway to symbolize and celebrate the city of Tokyo and the country of Japan. GUIDESOLE™ technology in the sole is the key function in the GLIDERIDE™ shoe. Improved cushioning, which is a result of FLYTEFOAM® technology and GEL® technology cushioning helps reduce the load on the foot. The stiff forefoot and dynamically curved sole increases running efficiency by reducing the movement of the ankle joint. Additionally, the shoe’s center of mass is closer to the heel, so it’s easier to swing the foot forward. The rolling motion you feel in this shoe actually propels the foot forward for increased efficiency by reducing the forward movement of the ankle. This lets you run farther with less effort. The GLIDERIDE™ Tokyo shoe with GUIDESOLE™ technology lets you conserve energy for efficient runs.
GUIDESOLE™ Technology
The curved sole design and stiff forefoot of our GUIDESOLE™ technology reduce ankle flexion and provide a shock-absorbent landing zone to lessen fatigue of other leg muscles and increase runner efficiency.
Rearfoot GEL® technology cushioning system
Attenuates shock during impact phase and allows for a smooth transition to midstance.
FLYTEFOAM® Midsole Technology
Our FLYTEFOAM® technology provides exceptional bounce back and responsiveness no matter the distance, utilizing organic super fibers to help reduce packing out that traditionally happens with softer, low density foams.
FLYTEFOAM® Propel Technology
ASICS energetic foam formulation that provides supreme bounce thanks to a unique elastomer compound.
Guidance Line® Midsole Technology
Vertical flex groove decouples the tooling along the line of progression for enhanced gait efficiency.
AHAR® Plus Outsole
Strategically positioned in critical areas of the outsole, this exceptionally durable compound is 50% more durable than standard ASICS High Abrasion Rubber.
Ortholite® Sockliner
Moisture management (Ortholite is a registered trademark of ATP Manufacturing LLC).
Reflectivity
Special reflective material designed to enhance safety and visibility in low light conditions
