The GEL-TRABUCOâ„¢ 9 (WIDE) shoe has been re-engineered from top to bottom to assert itself as an all-around trail shoe. Rugged and comfortable are the two terms that best describe this trail running shoe. It's for the off-road runner seeking excellent durability, protection, and grip for groomed trails.
After reimagining the shoe’s upper, this version weighs in at approximately one ounce (30gm) less than its predecessor. Fitted on a wider last, the advanced comfort comes from the FLYTEFOAM™ midsole material that's coupled with GEL™ technology cushioning in the heel.
Equipped with a DUOMAXâ„¢ support system that creates a more stable ride, this placement of foam on the medial side of the midsole offers a firmer density that keeps the foot from rotating inward too much (overpronation). The lugged outsole pattern features ASICSGRIPâ„¢ rubber while incorporating an uphill and downhill lug pattern on the lateral and medial side of the shoe to improve traction on slippery terrain. Additionally a rock protection plate helps the outsole stay flexible and shield the foot from abrupt terrain or trail debris.
The GEL-TRABUCOâ„¢ 9 shoe is designed to help you fly through the trails with advanced traction both uphill and downhill, while the responsive midsole foam creates better propulsion throughout your off-road recon.
For men the standard shoe width is D, going up to a wide fitting 2E and the widest a 4E. In New Zealand the most common shoe width size* for men is a 2E. Find out more about widths.

Pronation is part of the natural movement of the human body and refers to the way your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The GEL-TRABUCO 9 (WIDE) is made for Neutral, and Overpronation.
Normal size arches
There is even distribution from the front of the foot.
The foot lands on the outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.
Low arches or flat feet
Big toe and second toe do majority of the work.
The foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot.
