Men’s ASICS Shoes
Men’s ASICS shoes cover road running, trail, training, sport-specific, and everyday wear. From daily trainers to safety boots, ASICS cover more ground than you might expect. The range is wide, and so is the choice.
For runners who overpronate, the GEL-KAYANO™ is our flagship stability shoe, using FLUIDSUPPORT™ technology to adapt to your changing biomechanical needs throughout each stride, providing guidance during key phases of the gait cycle while allowing natural foot motion for smooth, efficient transitions. For neutral runners, the NOVABLAST™ is the most versatile daily trainer in the range, handling everything from easy runs through uptempo paces. If maximum cushioning is the priority, the GEL-NIMBUS™ with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning that provides a blend of cloud-like cushioning and a responsive ride.
At the top of the performance range, the SUPERBLAST™ 3 uses a trampoline-inspired sole shape, with the sole's bottom design promoting a higher energy return for an enhanced foam bouncing effect during toe-off. The MEGABLAST™ uses FF TURBO™ SQUARED cushioning and a rocker geometry for fast rides without a carbon plate.
Beyond running, the men's range splits into two distinct categories. The SportStyle range pulls from ASICS' performance archive, with models like the GEL-NYC™, GEL-KAYANO™ 20, and GT-2160™ translating classic running silhouettes into everyday sneakers. For workplace safety, the ASICS working range brings the same fit and build standards as the performance range, with BOA® Fit System and a 2E wide fit.
What are the best mens ASICS running shoes for training?
It depends on your foot type and what you're training for. The NOVABLAST™ is the most versatile daily trainer in the range, covering easy runs through to tempo work. Overpronators are better suited to the GEL-KAYANO™, which provides structured support for longer distances without sacrificing cushioning. For everyday, easy runs, the GEL-NIMBUS™ suits all runners looking for a highly cushioned, neutral shoe, with the deepest midsole stack in the men's lineup.
How do I know if I need a stability or neutral running shoe?
The easiest indicator is wear pattern. If the inside edge of your current shoes wears down faster than the outside, you likely overpronate and will benefit from a stability shoe like the GEL-KAYANO™. If wear is relatively even across the sole, a neutral shoe such as the NOVABLAST™ or GEL-NIMBUS™ is the right call.

Are ASICS mens shoes good for sports shoes for men beyond running?
Yes. The ASICS men’s range covers more than road running. The SportStyle range includes retro-influenced models like the GEL-NYC™, GEL-KAYANO™ 20, and GT-2160™ for everyday wear. For court and field sports, ASICS produces sport-specific shoes for football, tennis, and cricket. The work boot range, including the CP3 S3 BOA® LOW-CUT and CP6 S3 G-TX BOA® MID-CUT, covers workplace safety requirements with the same fit and build quality as the performance range.
