Asics FAQ
Common questions about Asics
Learn more about what makes Asics unique.
What is GEL technology?
GEL is Asics' signature silicone-based cushioning placed in the heel and forefoot to absorb shock at impact. It's been the core of their running shoes since 1986 and remains one of the most trusted cushioning systems in the industry.
Which Asics is right for me?
For road running, the Gel-Nimbus offers maximum cushioning and the Gel-Kayano adds stability. For lifestyle and streetwear, the Gel-1130 and Gel-NYC are the trending silhouettes blending retro design with modern comfort.
Are Asics good for standing or working all day?
Yes — models like the Gel-Kayano and Gel-Nimbus pair GEL cushioning with stability and a roomy toe box, making them a popular pick for nurses, retail workers, and anyone on their feet for long shifts.
Why is the Asics Gel-1130 so popular?
The Gel-1130 taps Asics' early-2000s runner aesthetic with modern GEL comfort, making it a leading lifestyle silhouette — a retro look that blends seamlessly into streetwear while still feeling good for all-day wear.
