The 1063 has more cushioning than almost any other trainer on the market. And while there's a danger that too much can lead to an energy-sapping ride, the cushioning in this shoe delivers a nice natural spring. It's also got good arch support and the upper is made of a new moisture-reducing material called Cocona.
The Asics Gel 2140 has been designed for moderate over-pronators who cover long distances (over 10km) every time they run. While it still has the same DuoMax Support System as its predecessor, it has improved stability due to the addition of a 5.5mm Ortholite ComforDry sockliner.
The anatomical-fit lining in the Adistar Control 5 means you can run in it almost as soon as you’ve taken it out the box. However far you're running, you’ll do so efficiently and comfortably thanks to the ForMotion technology in the heel, which stabilises and cushions.
This beefy shoe has a raft of cushioning and stabilising features. It offers a great heel-to-toe transition, can send information about your performance to your iPod and, given its meaty-looks, is surprisingly light.
