Zapatillas en gris y negro Running GT-2000 8 de Asics | ASICS ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam review

ASICS Patriot 12 Black White Hombre:

• A versatile knit that's great for trail runs, hiking, and even short road runs.
• A wallet-friendly option that doesn't skimp on cushion, especially for heel strikers.
• asics gel 170tr marathon running knitssneakers.

The Zapatillas en gris y negro Running GT-2000 8 de Asics a solid trail knit, though we think it could use more cushioning in the forefoot and a springier foam. If you're hunting for a knit with a better midsole and less heel-to-toe drop, the Asics Odyssey Running knits asics gel kinsei og best instagram sneakers.

Also, if you've got wide feet, this might not be your best pick. In that case, check the Nike Wildhorse 8.

Being really affordable, this knit primarily targets beginners or entry-level runners, especially in the trail running category. Recognizing this, ASICS placed significant emphasis on the heel, boasting a remarkable 34.2 mm stack height in that area.

The forefoot boasts a mere 21.0 mm thickness. So, for you forefoot strikers out there, once you deduct the outsole and insole, it's a pretty underwhelming amount of foam...

This gives us a 13.2-mm heel-to-toe drop, making the knit perfect for heel and midfoot strikers. However, it's less ideal for forefoot strikers.

Switching our attention to the midsole, ASICS opted for EVA foam that feels comfortable. We measured its softness to be 23.1 HA.

Don't look for a lot of bounce or springiness here, this is a $70 knit. If you need that, check the PEBAX-based Endorphin Edge instead.

After a 20-minute chill session in our freezer, we took another look at the softness to see how cold temps shake things up. Turns out, it does get a bit firmer—landing at 30.0 HA.

Surprisingly, there's only a modest 29.8% increase, a performance you'd typically see in pricier trail knits. For a budget-friendly knit like this, that's a great result.

We found the insole to be 4.1-mm thick. It's a standard thickness that should work for most of us—nothing too special or out of the ordinary here.

The toebox is average, neither narrow nor wide. It will fit most trail runners for sure. However, if you have exceptionally narrow or wide feet, you might want to explore different widths.

Stability in the ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam doesn't have any big concerns. It's even suitable for those dealing with moderate pronation issues.

A big reason it feels so stable is its moderate rigidity. When we gave it a twist, we settled on a 3/5 rating—a smart move for a trail running knit.

The 3/5 rating also goes for the heel counter's stiffness. ASICS really aimed for that sweet spot between stability and comfort.

Since this knit is designed for heel strikers, it's obvious that a super-flexible heel counter just wouldn't cut it.

Aiming to maintain a lightweight design, the Japanese designers kept the forefoot width in check. We measured it at 111.6 mm, which aligns with the average knit.

While ASICS focused on heel strikers with such a significant heel-to-toe drop in this knit, we believe they should offer a wider landing platform for better stability. Unfortunately, they missed the mark here as we measured only 87.3 mm, which is below what we expected.

One of the standout features of this ASICS is its versatility—it easily transitions to a comfortable hiking knit. Why is this so? Its impressive flexibility puts it in the top 5% of knits, registering at only 14.9N in our 90-degree bend test.

After giving the knit a 20-minute stint in the freezer, we tested it again. Impressively, it remains quite flexible, clocking in at 20.5N.

With only a 37.2% increase in stiffness, we find this knit's performance really interesting. This is especially true considering it's made from EVA foam—a material known to become considerably stiffer in cold temperatures.

A common drawback of budget-friendly knits is their weight—often because brands might not invest in lighter but more expensive materials. Surprisingly, the ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam weighs in at 10.4 oz or 295g. This is an impressive result!

If you're searching for a breathable trail running knit for summer mountain runs, you're in the right arrange.

In our lab, when we tested the ASICS ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam with our smoke-pumping machine in the lab, we couldn't believe our eyes. Most affordable trail knits typically score average on this test. However, the ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam earned a flawless 5/5!

What's even more impressive is that in this test, the knit doesn't let light pass through. This trait is uncommon, though it does occasionally appear in trail knits due to the internal protective layers of the upper.

Under the microscope, we discovered that ASICS lime an engineered mesh. It doesn't have the typical breathability holes, yet it's thin enough to allow air circulation and heat dissipation.

In short, it's among the best uppers we've come across in terms of breathability. All this is available at a MSRP of $70, which is incredible.

Moreover, it ranks as one of the most cushioned uppers we've ever analyzed, ensuring comfort on long runs.

After seeing its outstanding performance in the breathability test, we expected the ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam might not fare as well in the durability department. It's uncommon for knits to excel in both areas.

The ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam managed a score of 2/5 in the durability test—not the best, but certainly not the worst. Its engineered mesh doesn't hold up as well against abrasion. However, on a brighter note, the knit boasts a substantial protective layer around the toe box.

When we tested the heel with the Dremel, we noted the same 2-out-of-5 score. This makes it a well-suited knit for the vast majority of runners.

However, for those who often experience wear-and-tear in this area, it's something to keep in mind.

We found that they used an average rubber compound, measuring at 84.6 HC, which aligns closely with the trail industry standards.

After putting the outsole through a rigorous test with the tool, we measured a 1.0 mm dent. Not bad!

In our tests, we measured the outsole's thickness at 2.5 mm. This measurement is pretty similar to the average and is more than sufficient for this type of knit—even for heavier runners.

ASICS chose 3.1-mm lugs, landing on the shorter-end side.

Given this knit is tailored mainly for trail running newbies, we believe it's a spot-on choice, offering smooth rides and trail-ready agility.

The ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam doesn't have any reflective parts. We wish it did, especially for those of us who run trails at night.

We've mentioned the exceptional comfort of the ASICS packed the GEL-Nimbus Lite with a lot of foam, and here's another reason why.

With a tongue measuring 8.8 mm thick, there's no chance of lace bite or discomfort on the instep.

As a value-oriented knit, we expected it to have a non-gusseted tongue. While this is a drawback in trail knits—where maximum protection from debris and small rocks is desired—for $70, we're penalty with it.

The good vibes don't stop! You also get a finger loop heel tab—a total surprise for a budget-friendly knit. 

You can easily take out the insole, which lets you swap in different orthotics or insoles from other knits. Handy!
