Description
The Asics Jolt 4 running shoe is Asics’ most affordable running shoe for asphalt. It can be a good option primarily for runners who run little (short distance or few occasions) or beginner runners. I still think that a beginner runner should not buy cheap, less advanced running shoes because on the one hand, buying expensive running shoes will motivate him/her not to stop running, and on the other hand, running shoes with more advanced technologies will give a better running experience, which will make it easier to love running. The Asics Jolt 4 running shoe has some good qualities, if nothing else it is a running shoe, not a casual running shoe that you can injure yourself in if you run on nerve for a long time. It’s worth noting that Asics is making 19 colour variations of the Jolt 4 running shoe, suggesting that it’s aimed at a wide range of people and selling a larger quantity of them. Since this is the 4th release of the shoe, from the sales numbers of the first 3 versions, Asics must have a lot of experience, so it’s certainly plausible that they’re pushing the Jolt 4 in so many styles.
Asics Jolt 4 upper
The upper of the Asics Jolt 4 running shoe is the most controversial part of the shoe. The mesh upper has very good breathability, so you can run bene on hot summer days, but it wears out very quickly, wears out easily and tears easily. The tongue of the shoe is not fixed, but it is very thick, so in addition to providing good protection, it keeps the foot in place and does not slip easily. The heel collar is stiff, which keeps the foot stable, and is moderately cushioned, so it is comfortable. The upper has a wider design so it can also be comfortable for people with wide feet
Asics Jolt 4 midfoot
The Asics Jolt 4 running shoe midsole is made from Asics Amplifoam foam, as with the Gel -Excite and Gel-Pulse lines. This foam, Asics mostly uses in running shoes for beginner runners. The Amplifoam foam is a harder EVA foam, but not too soft foam with moderate dynamics. It’s durable, has good shock absorption, and its hardness gives it good stability. Also for stability, the midsole is wider than average at the toes and heel… It is especially suitable as a first running shoe for beginners, but can also be a good choice for overweight runners with a large body weight. As the midsole is not high, 32 mm at the heel, it is flexible and flexes well despite the hardness of the foam.
Asics Jolt 4 Outsole
The Asics Jolt 4 Running Shoe Outsole is made from a single compound rubber that has good abrasion resistance. The outsole is not only abrasion resistant, it is also thicker than average, making it very durable. Because the outsole is bulky, even though it is hard, it also has good grip. The outsole is articulated, so it does not make the midsole stiff.
Summary
Overall, the Asics Jolt 4 running shoe is a cheap, best for beginner or overweight runners. The outsole is durable and grips well, the midsole has good shock absorption and stability, and the dynamics are moderate, making it suitable for low-intensity running. The upper is not very durable but has good breathability.
