Asics Trabuco Max 5 Light Dust / Cacti Mens

The ASICS Trabuco Max 5 is maximum cushioning for the trails — a shoe built to protect your legs across every kilometre of groomed and runnable terrain, from long training days to races where course distance demands more underfoot. GUIDESOLE technology saves energy on the climbs and runnable flats, whilst FF BLAST PLUS foam and a deep ASICSGRIP lug pattern keep you cushioned, gripped, and moving forward.

Key Features

• FF BLAST PLUS Midsole with Sidewall Wrap: Lightweight, responsive foam wraps up at the sides to cradle your foot in place, delivering plush protection and stability across extended time on uneven terrain.
• GUIDESOLE Technology: A stiffened midsole geometry promotes an efficient forward roll, reducing energy expenditure on long trail days — the same technology that powers ASICS' road-racing efficiency, adapted for the trails.
• Improved Water-Repellent Jacquard Mesh Upper: An updated jacquard mesh with water-repellent fibres and improved breathability keeps feet protected from light moisture and trail debris without compromising airflow.
• Lace-In-Lace + Gusseted Sand Guard Tongue: A secure lockdown system pairs with a fully gusseted tongue to keep debris, grit, and trail crud outside the shoe where it belongs.
• ASICSGRIP Outsole — 3.5mm Uphill/Downhill Lugs: Trail-specific lug geometry with dedicated uphill and downhill lug patterns bites into the ground confidently on climbs and descents alike.
