Asics Gel Phoenix 5

The new Asics Gel Phoenix 6 have been redesigned for better comfort. Now, it supports those people who overpronate. It helps prevent that tendency to roll the feet inwards for more comfort while running. This makes it easier for you to focus on your run without having to keep worrying about how your feet are doing. The Asics High Abrasion Rubber sole (AHAR) has also been updated to the AHAR+ for even better traction and durability. You can run farther and faster on different kinds of roads and paths with these great additions.

Arch Support and Pronation Control

The pronation control of these shoes is neutral, and it provides support for those who tend to overpronate. The support is also perfect for those with normal to high arches, due to the Duomax support system and the SpEVA midsole.

Terrain                          

These shoes are suited for road and gravel, especially given the high abrasion rubber outsole. However, it is not meant for all terrains.

Use

Due to the lightweight nature of these shoes, these are great for speed, but they are also durable enough to handle distance runs.

Durability

Because of the quality material put into the high abrasion rubber outsole, the SpEVA midsole and the DuoMaz support system, the shoes do not wear out easily. They can last for a very long time, even if you run hundreds of miles.

Outer Sole

The outer sole is made of the Asics High Abrasion Rubber or AHAR+. It has been strategically designed so that it is heavier in areas of the shoe that are heavier in use. This allows one to go through their runs smoothly without the outsole wearing out, and to be able to run on different kinds of road conditions.

Midsole

There is a lot of technology in the midsole, primarily the SpEVA midsole material of Asics. It is a durable material that is soft, yet stable. It allows for bounce back characteristics. Along with this is the Duomax support system that enhances the support and stability of the foot. Last is the Trusstic system that reduces the weight of the sole while maintaining the structural integrity of the shoe.

Upper

The upper is attached directly to the midsole for better support underfoot. The material is stitched around a canvas for more stability, while still remaining comfortable. The material is a mix of breathable mesh and supportive synthetic materials. Thus, it is not just comfortable, but also breathable and less restricting on the foot itself.
These running shoes are quite lightweight, but very comfortable and durable. It is built to last without losing out on the comfort, especially given the impressive gel cushioning on the inside. These shoes have been built to support those with normal to high arches for their feet, and aid those with the tendency to overpronate. This way, you can just concentrate on the run while the shoes take complete care of your feet.
The outsole is made of the Asics High Abrasion Rubber to better traction and increased durability. The Trusstic system that helps reduce the weight of the sole to make the shoe more lightweight also maintains the shoe’s structural integrity. You can take these for all your runs, and you really don’t have to worry about wearing these out.
The most impressive part of these shoes is really the midsole, which has a lot put into it to ensure stability, durability, comfort and support. 
Overall, if you are looking for decent running shoes at a lower price point, then these are definitely it. The price is definitely not a reflection of the quality of the shoes as these still provide amazing comfort, support, stability and durability. These shoes are great for those who overpronate or who have higher arches, as it provides more control than other shoes would. Also, because of the technology put in to ensure they boost performance and give you more support, these shoes even suit those who are older. The shock absorbent capacity suits those with problems in their joints.

The price of these shoes is $90 retail price, however, it is possible to get them lower if you find the right promotions online or in stores.
