Your Ultimate Running Partner
Since 1949, ASICS has been the go-to brand for athletes and sneaker lovers alike. Known for their innovative tech and commitment to performance, ASICS offers a wide range of footwear perfect for everyone — from dedicated runners to casual walkers to anyone just looking for comfy kicks. At Hibbett, we’re proud to be along for the ride — or the run. Visit us in-store or online for the latest ASICS running shoes offered in men’s and women’s styles and sizes.
ASICS Takes the Lead
ASICS has built a solid reputation in the athletic world, and it all started with founder Kihachiro Onitsuka. After World War II, he wanted to give young people the tools they needed to lead healthy lives. Over the years, ASICS expanded its lineup to include basketball, wrestling, volleyball and more — basically covering all your athletic needs. By the late '70s, they had established themselves as a top-performance running shoe brand.
The introduction of ASICS GEL cushioning in the late '80s was a game-changer, setting a new standard for comfort in running shoes. The name ASICS stands for "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which means "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." This philosophy drives them to create shoes that not only boost your athletic performance but also promote overall well-being. Their running shoes, like the ASICS GEL-KAYANO, GEL-CUMULUS, GEL-NIMBUS and NOVABLAST, are fan favorites thanks to their amazing cushioning and support. ASICS continues to innovate, helping runners go the distance.
Packed for Performance
ASICS running shoes have carved out a solid reputation in the athletic world, and for good reason. They’re packed with features that cater to every runner’s needs.
ASICS GEL Cushioning Technology
Silicone-based GEL cushioning units are strategically placed in the heel and forefoot to absorb impact and reduce stress on your joints. This means you can tackle longer distances without feeling wiped out. Every step feels light and bouncy, allowing you to focus on pace and enjoy your run.
Go Lightweight with FLYTEFOAM
Then there's FLYTEFOAM, which is about 55% lighter than regular EVA foam but still offers amazing cushioning and responsiveness. Made from organic super fibers, it bounces back after each stride, so you get that springy feel mile after mile.
Are ASICS Good Running Shoes?
Yes — ASICS consistently ranks among the top running shoe brands for a reason. Their commitment to research and feedback from both elite athletes and everyday runners means they deliver shoes that perform exceptionally well. Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned marathoner, ASICS has models that cater to different running styles and foot types.
Are ASICS True to Size?
When it comes to sizing, most ASICS running shoes fit true to size, but keep in mind that fit can vary between models. They offer various width options — narrow, standard, wide, and extra wide — so you can find that perfect fit. If you're unsure, it's always a good idea to try them on or check out their sizing chart.
