Technologies:

All shoe models incorporate the GEL® cushioning technology that ASICS has used in many of its athletic shoes for years. Depending on the shoe model, GEL® inserts can be found in the heel, forefoot or both. In the heel, GEL® inserts provide cushioning to absorb shock as the foot meets the playing surface. In the forefoot, GEL® inserts provide comfort when pushing off the balls of the feet.

These ASICS tennis shoes include the following technologies:

AHAR™ is a technology used to develop a long lasting outsole. It is an acronym for ASICS High Abrasion Rubber. This is a critical aspect of design in ASICS tennis shoes, since this area usually gets more wear than any other area. It is available on all all the above models except the GEL Game 3.

Flexion Fit™ is an upper technology that provides comfort, support and a great fit.

I.G.S.® (Impact Guidance System) is a technology that keeps foot movement as close to a natural gait as possible.

PGuard™  technology is found in the toe guard and is made of a durable compound resistant to wear.  

P.H.F.® (Personal Heel Fit) is a memory foam collar in the heel area that conforms to an individual's heel shape for a customized fit.

Solyte® 55 is a lasting material that provides a combination of cushioning and stability.

Solyte® Midsole Material uses EVA to provide durable cushioning.

Trusstic System® is a lightweight sole technology that keeps the structural integrity of the shoe intact

NOTE: not all shoe models use all of the above technologies. To see what specific technologies a shoe model uses, please visit DoItTennis.com and refer to the information on a specific shoe model.
