Sizing guide

Generally, Asics Gel sneakers are a unisex shoe. Men’s sizing ranges from 4 to 14 US. Women who want to pick from men’s sizing, they need to subtract 1.5 sizes from their usual size to achieve the right and comfy fit.

Pronation guide

Choosing the right pair of Asics Gel sneakers is essential to enjoy an uncompromising comfort while remaining stylish. You need to consider the sizing as well as pronation to get the right support and level of comfort you need. Pronation is the human body’s natural movement which refers to how your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing.

Underpronation

• People with high arches are called underpronators or supinators. Because of high arches, when their foot hits the ground, it doesn’t roll inward or rolls inward just a little (pronates) which causes shock transmission through the lower leg.
• An excellent amount of cushioning is needed by underpronators to avoid strong impact.
• Underpronators may encounter shin splints, plantar fasciitis, and ankle strain.

Neutral Pronation 

• Neutral pronators have normal-sized arches. They have even distribution the foot front. When their outer side of the heel hits the ground, it pronates (roll inward), providing body weight support and shock absorption.
• For users with neutral pronation, they have the liberty to wear a wide variety of footwear. They need not worry about cushioning or support.
• Neutral pronators are less likely to encounter injuries because of efficient shock absorption.

Overpronation

• Overpronators are people with flat feet or low arches. Their big toes perform the majority of work. When their outside heel hits the ground, it rolls inward excessively, transferring the body weight to inner edge rather than the foot's ball.
• On the contrary, for those overpronators, they need to find shoes that offer structured cushioning and reliable support.
• Overpronators may experience plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, bunions and shin splints.

Fun Facts

Nike Cortez vs. Asics Corsair

Among the Asics Gel sneakers, the Corsair has the exciting story in the history. Back in 1969, Onitsuka Tiger, known today as Asics, released the Cortez in the market. Phil Knight, currently the chairman and co-founder of Nike Inc., was a sales rep for Tiger back in the 1960s and felt that he was instrumental in Cortez’s development. Therefore, he took the design with him when he left Tiger to form his own company.

This event caused a lengthy court battle. Finally, in 1974, the court decided that both companies had the rights to the shoe’s design. However, Tiger was not allowed to use the name Cortez. Thus the company named it as Corsair instead. 

The Tiger Stripes

Present on almost all the Asics Gel sneakers’ silhouette, the Asics Stripe marked its half-century existence in 2015. The idea behind the Asics Stripe is merely to provide firmness around the foot.

Blue Ribbon Sports

In 1964, Blue Ribbon Sports was an official distributor of Onitsuka Tiger shoes, currently identified as Asics Gel sneakers, in the US. Blue Ribbon Sports is now known as the company Nike Inc.

History          

Using a capital of ¥300,000 and hiring four employees, Kihachiro Onitsuka founded the Onitsuka Co., Ltd. in 1949. When Onitsuka Kohei Hori heard about the business, Hori gave Onitsuka the maxim of Juvenal which was "Anima Sana in Corpore Sano." "Anima Sana in Corpore Sano" (A.S.I.C.S) means "If you pray to God, you pray for a sound mind in a sound body."  This statement made so much impact to Onitsuka that later on its acronym became the brand's name.

Today, this Japanese multinational company produces not only sports equipment but also footwear for a wide range of sports. In 1949, Onitsuka started manufacturing basketball shoes in Kobe, Japan. He made several prototypes and released the first model in the spring of 1950.

In 1951, the company released the suction-cup basketball shoes. Like the octopus’ suckers, it had deep dimples on the whole of soles to improve the starting and braking performance. The company also manufactured and launched the first tennis shoes in the following year. In 1953, Onitsuka Tiger released the Marathon Tabi which had a highly advanced upper for an improved fit and rubber soles to increase wear resistance. The company also made shoes for volleyball, wrestling, and climbing, among others.

GTO and JELENK merged with Onitsuka Tiger to form Asics Corporation in 1977. Asics introduced the GEL technology in 1986. The company built this technology to lessen the chance of impact injuries. It has a silicon-based substance embedded into the EVA midsole to absorb shock and dissipate vibration.

In 1987, Asics launched the Original GEL-Lyte. This ultra-light shoe was built to liberate the athlete's run. Later, the company started the GEL-Lyte II and III in 1989 and 1990 respectively. In 1991, another iteration of Asics Gel sneakers was introduced in the form of GEL-Saga which had an upgraded style to the sole and a lightweight synthetic upper. Soon the company developed the GEL-Lyte Ultra in 1992. It had new panels built across the upper and new outsole in to fill that gap, with a brand new outsole made to flex with the foot.

In 1993, new variations of Asics Gel sneakers were released like the GEL-Lyte V and GEL-Kayano in the market. Long-distance runners loved the GEL-Lyte V because it had side panels for more breathability and new mesh inserts on the toe box. The GEL-Kayano was intended for the ultimate shock absorption and perfect for the high-mileage runners. Kayano's silhouette had a robust framework. It has porous P-GEL in the forefoot and Theta GEL for cushioning.
