The GEL-SPLYTE™ shoe was developed by analyzing the movement of skateboarders at the ASICS Institute of Sport Science.

Asics's engineering team constructed this shoe by tuning the midsole with performance-focused technologies, like FF BLAST™ cushioning and fuzeGEL™ technology. These feature help create advanced impact absorption and board control.

The upper's split-tongue construction makes the shoe easier to put on and take off while offering extra padding across the vamp. Meanwhile, the triple-stitch design helps increase durability and resist wear.
