The i-Run team says
Designed for versatility, the Asics Gel-Venture 9 Waterproof for men is an optimal choice during your trail running sessions on mixed terrain in wet weather.
This model provides awaterproof coating that keeps you protected from rain and the elements while allowing air to circulate freely.
Higher than on the previous version, the midsole designed with AmpliFoam gives you softer cushioning and increased comfort. The GEL throughout the heel optimises impact absorption with the ground for more fluidity in your stride.
You'll benefit from breathability suited to your performance thanks to the mesh upper. It has strategically placed reinforcements to protect your foot and increase durability.
Its rubber outsole is optimised for excellent grip as well as great wear resistance. Fitted with cleats, it gives you good traction compatible with all types of surface.

GEL talon
The Asics Gel system is probably the most famous of Asics' innovations. To provide the highest possible shock absorption, Gel units are strategically positioned in the midsole. Various components are used for the Asics Gel cushioning system. Depending on its purpose, the Gel unit is encapsulated in polyurethane. The shape of the units is also precisely related to their position and function.
