Thermobonded reinforcements eliminate stitch induced friction
The GEL-QUANTUM 180 VIII sneaker draws inspiration from archived running shoes from the 2000s and combines these influences with technical tooling.
This design's upper construction references elements from the GEL-KINSEI 4 and GEL-SENDAI 2 shoes. These details are met with welded overlays for a layered aesthetic.
The midsole is structured with DIVISION SPACE technology for advanced impact absorption underfoot. It's also paired with FLYTEFOAM PROPEL cushioning to help keep the shoe lightweight in everyday scenarios.
Compression molded collars stabilize ankles without restricting natural motion.
