Overview
Streets, school grounds and casual outings are the setting for this retro ASICS sportstyle sneaker. GEL technology in the heel and paneled synthetic materials give it a modern look on an older running design.
Choose it for a child's everyday sneaker with a retro style and gel heel cushioning. The data is inconsistent on use, listing both running and walking, and the description makes it a grade school shoe rather than an adult trainer.
Who it's for
A school-age wearer who spends the day on foot gets lightweight, flexible comfort with a retro look. Adult runners and those wanting waterproofing should skip it.
Pros and cons
- GEL technology in the heel
- Retro paneled styling
- Lightweight and flexible
- Grade school sizing, not adult
- Not water resistant
- Strap type field says ankle strap
- Cushioning level only medium
Performance notes
The gel in the heel absorbs landing impact, and the synthetic panels over a polyester lining give a flexible, easy-care upper. A rubber sole supplies the slip resistance. Because it is styled on a retro stability runner rather than a current trainer, it is meant for walking and casual wear.
