This shoe surely offers exceptional comfort and cushioning that provide a smooth ride.

The Asics Gel Lyte33 3 is suitable for speed work and tempo runs. You will find it really easy to use because it is not heavy. Aside from that, this running shoe can also be used for normal trainings. Using this shoe will give you a smooth heel-to-toe transition, and will improve your performance as well.

In order to make running much better, the Asics Gel Lyte33 3 has new features and technologies. This shoe features the rear foot Gel cushioning system that is helpful in absorbing shock on impact. Because of this cushioning system, you will be protected, especially during impact landing. However, the cushioning of this shoe is not that good. Nevertheless, this is still very helpful, especially to runners who are not that good at managing their running. Aside from this, it also offers the Dual Density Midsole that provides both comfort and cushioning.

Arch Support and Pronation Control

The Asics Gel Lyte33 is a neutral running shoe that is suitable for people who are under pronators. Under pronation, also called as supination, happens when the foot does not pronate that much. The first to strike the ground is the outer side of the heel, but during the gait cycle, the feet do not roll inward. Choosing this running shoe will provide the support you need if you have a neutral arch and is an under pronator.

Terrain

The terrains where you can use the Asics Gel Lyte33 are the track, road and gravel. This shoe has features that will provide good traction that is useful in wet conditions. However, this shoe cannot be used on the trail because of the weak sole construction it has. If you try it on the trail, there is a chance that you will encounter problems in the middle of the trail and worse, you will not be able to finish your run.

Use

The Asics Gel Lyte33 is used for daily trainings, as well as activities that need speed work. Since this shoe is lightweight, moving fast will not be an issue. In fact, it will greatly help in enhancing your performance and speed.

Durability                                      

In terms of the durability of the Asics Gel Lyte33, it actually features the Asics High Abrasion Rubber found in the heel. However, it seems that the sole breaks down much faster compared to the traditionally constructed shoes. If ever you choose to get this shoe, you have to constantly check the sole to make sure that it is always in good condition while running.

Outer Sole

The outer sole of the Asics Gel Lyte33 consists of the Asics High Abrasion Rubber (AHAR), which is located in the heel. This carbon rubber material is responsible in providing the durability of the shoe. Other than this feature, there is also the F.A.S.T. Sole that only uses minimal outsole materials when in high-wear areas.

Midsole

On the midsole of this running shoe, it features Solyte, which is a lightweight midsole. This offers responsive cushioning. Cushioning refers to the shock absorption on impact. This is very essential during running because it keeps you away from injuries. In order to improve your gait efficiency, the presence of the Guidance Line, which is a vertical flex groove that is found in the forefoot, is very helpful.

In order to provide a responsive ride, this shoe also features the F.A.S.T. Ride, a midsole design that is more stable. The F.A.S.T. Drop, on the other hand, will promote mid-foot and forefoot striking. This shoe has a heel to toe drop of around 6 mm, which is relatively lower than those of other running shoes.

With the presence of the Deep Flex Grooves that are strategically located in the midsole, it helps in proving a greater range of motion for your feet. In addition to this, FluidAxis flex grooves are helpful to move in harmony with the motions of the feet during running. These are placed strategically as well, in order to provide an optimal result.

Upper

For the shoe to have great breathability, an open mesh is placed on its upper. This will keep your feet cool and dry, even while running for long distances. Thus, you will really feel comfortable with it. The F.A.S.T Heel contributes to the reduction of the weight of the Asics Gel Lyte33.

The Asics Gel Lyte33 is loved by many runners because of the comfort that it brings. During running, having a shoe with great comfort helps boost your performance, and will possibly make you run for a much longer time and distance than the usual. Other than this, it also has a light weight. Because of this, runners are able to enjoy running, as well as sprinting and other speed work. 

The price of the Asics Gel Lyte33 is $100. This price range is already a good deal compared to other running shoes. There are even running shoes that exceed this range, but still offer the same features. If you want to try this shoe, it will not be too heavy for you to get it from your tight budget.
