Designed to be durable enough for daily training, responsive enough for speedwork and light enough for race day, the ASICS Magic Speed boasts the best of ASICS’ fastest technologies. Built on a bed of responsive FF Blast midsole foam, the Magic Speed is designed to push the pace. The springy, lightweight foam cushions each landing while remaining responsive enough to propel each toe-off forward. This midsole foam works with ASICS Guidesole technology and an asymmetrical carbon fiber plate in the forefoot to create a pronounced toe spring that delivers smooth transitions and a propulsive feel. The carbon plate in the forefoot works to reduce ankle flexion and creates high energy returns with each step, so you can run more efficiently. The ASICS Magic Speed is topped off with a super-light, engineered mesh upper that is flexible yet durable to withstand high speeds and daily training. Perforations in the mesh add extra ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable while you run.
