Think of this shoe as a running and volleyball hybrid. The features that make Asics a staple in the running community also provide a solid foundation for your foot on the court. You’ll appreciate the Gel-Cushioning System, which absorbs shock, and the shoe’s heel, which is lined with memory foam for a custom fit.

This shoe features Mizuno Wave technology, which evenly distributes shock throughout the foot, thus relieving stress on your joints and providing muchneeded stability. The outsole delivers solid traction, and the shoe is plenty breathable thanks to Mizuno’s Intercool ventilation system.
