ASICS Gel-Sonoma 8 Women’s Trail Running Shoes
The ASICS Gel-Sonoma 8 is built for women who tackle off-road trails and need reliable grip, cushioning, and comfort. Designed for trail running, these shoes support your stride on uneven terrain, helping you feel confident whether you’re climbing steep hills or descending rugged tracks.
A full-length AMPLIFOAM™ PLUS midsole provides soft, responsive cushioning underfoot, while strategically placed rearfoot GEL™ technology absorbs impact on landings. The engineered mesh upper keeps your feet cool and breathable, and the trail-specific solid rubber outsole delivers traction where it counts, giving stability on slippery or loose surfaces.

---------------
Cushioning
-
The material that absorbs the impact against the ground. The more cushioning utilised, the softer a shoe will feel underfoot.
Neutral Support
-
Normal sized Arches.
-
During push off there is an even distribution from the front of the foot.
-
The foot lands on the outside of the heel, then rolls inward to absorb the shock and support body weight.
Drop
-
The difference from the heel of the shoe to the forefoot.
-
Shoes with a higher heel drop tend to be preferred by runners that land heel-first.
-
Shoes with a lower heel drop are often favoured by forefoot or midfoot strikers.
