As an ASICS Ambassador, I have had the privilege of running in the new ASICS MetaRun shoe. I will be honest, this is probably one of my favorite running shoes to date! ASICS has come through and created an amazing shoe to help you #MasterIt … whatever your running goal might be!
I have taken these gorgeous, comfortable, sparkly (the soles are gold sparkles!) shoes out a few times. I have about 20 miles on them and my feet have been happy with every step on the run.
ASICS has been working on this amazing shoe for a while now. They know what runners want and need in a great running shoe. The MetaRun has everything needed to help you #MasterIt. Whatever YOUR IT may be.
My opinions on the MetaRun Shoe:
I love the support and cushioning of this shoe! No matter the terrain or how my foot strikes, the shoe responds amazingly well. I suffer from mild plantar fasciitis on my left heel and I have no pain while running and wearing these shoes. They shoe molds and holds my foot like it is customized to my foot! I love it.
The MetaRun is designed with human intelligence in mind and the drive for making the best long-distance runners shoe, ASICS and the ASICS Institute of Sport Science introduce MetaRun.
No cost restraints. No time constraints. No limitations.
Adapting and contouring to your individual running style, MetaRun is built using the latest ASICS exclusive technologies providing you with the best and first ever running shoe with a responsive ride. Experience it to believe it.
MetaRun doesn’t just push the limits of performance, it shatters them. The future in responsive running is here.
MORE CUSHIONING, LESS WEIGHT
Constructed using groundbreaking midsole foam developed in the ASICS ISS. FlyteFoam isn’t a little bit lighter, it’s remarkably 55%* lighter than the industry standard. FlyteFoam isn’t just super lightweight, it’s organic fibers bounce the MetaRun back into its original shape in the space of each stride to provide perfect cushioning from the start of your run to the finish.
Long Lasting Stability
A carbon fiber reinforced, two-piece AdaptTruss gives MetaRun both incredible stability and amazing flexibility. This helps to reduce the impact of medial forces on the foot, so the MetaRun will flex safely but become rigid if the foot rolls in too much, meaning reliable stability no matter the distance.
A Personalized Heel Fit
Whether you’re stretching or flying past the 10km mark the new x-shaped construction of the external clutch counter will perfectly wrap the inside and outside of your ankle bone. Thanks to the memory foam lining the MetaRun™ model delivers a personalized heel fit every time you step into the shoe.
Engineered to Fit Like a Glove
A new one-layer engineered mesh minimizes rubbing between the foot and the upper to create a super snug, glove-like fitting experience. A unique combination of closed and open weave patterns optimizes flexibility and breathability.
High Performance Shock Absorption
Innovative use of ASICS high tech GEL® cushioning system in new, more efficient shapes and precision positioning deliver unrivaled cushioning. ASICS introduces X-GEL™ technology.

No compensation was received. I was not obligated to write this review. I run in this shoe and wanted YOU to run it too!

I know you’re not supposed to choose a shoe based on looks – but the gold sparkles caught my eye. Though the rest of the shoe sounds great, too.
