Asics Glideride Max 2 Black / White Mens

Whether you're logging serious kilometres or managing a foot or ankle injury, the ASICS Glideride Max 2 was built to keep you moving with less effort and less strain. GUIDESOLE technology creates a true rocker-sole effect — a stiffened EVA plate and upturned toe spring guide your foot through a smooth, effortless heel-to-toe roll, reducing the work your ankle and forefoot have to do with every step — whilst a dual-layer FF BLAST MAX and FF BLAST PLUS midsole wraps each stride in maximum cushioning.

Key Features

• GUIDESOLE Rocker Sole Technology: A hardened EVA forefoot plate and geometric toe spring reduce ankle flexion and forefoot loading, making this a standout choice for anyone managing Achilles issues, plantar fasciitis, hallux rigidus, or metatarsal pain — as well as runners chasing better efficiency over long distances.
• Smooth Heel-to-Toe Transition: The rocker geometry propels you forward naturally without requiring your foot to do the work, saving energy for runners on big training weeks and reducing strain for those in recovery or managing lower limb conditions.
• Dual-Layer FF BLAST MAX + FF BLAST PLUS Midsole: Two of ASICS' premium foams stacked with purpose — MAX on top for deep, plush cushioning; PLUS below for resilience and responsiveness — delivering a ride that's protective without feeling dead underfoot.
• Engineered Woven Upper: A structured woven upper with updated heel construction and integrated pull tab wraps the foot in a breathable, secure fit that holds up across long days on your feet, whether you're running or simply walking.
• Hybrid ASICSGRIP Outsole: A hybrid rubber compound covers high-wear zones for reliable grip and long-lasting durability on roads, paths, and everyday surfaces.
