TRABUCO MAX

The TRABUCO MAX™ shoe contains a 5mm drop but also a higher than standard MIDSOLE stack height in previous ASICS Trail shoes, thus endorsing the rocker style of forward momentum.

Not as aggressive as the GLIDERIDE™ 2 sensorially, however the TRABUCO MAX™ can accommodate the runner who instinctively lands on the MIDFOOT. Its grip is fantastic on wet rocks and slippery clay. The TOE BOX is deep and reinforced to protect the runner’s toes and nails from banging against natural hazards. Gaiter hooks are useful for the bush runner or tramper who is planning to wear the shoe for sub-alpine exploring. The upper is porous, keeping the shoe from becoming waterlogged whilst running through unavoidable mud and water. The TRABUCO MAX™ is very lightweight for a trail shoe, weighing less than similar competitor products.

The emerging category of sagittal plane enhancing shoes is exciting for walker’s, middle-aged runners and medical professionals who now have a training and rehabilitation tool that addresses conditions related to the loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength, as a result of ageing, whilst allowing a person to choose running for their mental and physical wellbeing.
