Asics Gel-Hockey Neo 3 Women's Hockey Shoes The GEL-Hockey Neo 3 has been designed and developed for fast movements on the hockey field. Catering to quick and agile players, it has a low profile and great responsiveness. Synthetic Upper Synthetic uppers will encase each foot in durable comfort. The fabric swathes the foot in stability, creating a firm fit by anchoring you to the midsole and reducing in-shoe slippage so that you can enjoy smooth, distraction-free strides. The padded tongue and heel add soft support whilst contributing to the snug-fitting environment of the Neo 3. A PGuard, made from a reinforced rubber/resin compound, wraps the toes and medial forefoot to improve abrasion-resistance, increasing the shoe's durability whilst defending your feet against sweeping shots. A seamless quarter panel means reduced layers, weight and bulk, plus a minimised risk of rubbing and blisters; because we know how those can ruin your day. SoLyte Midsole A moulded EVA sockliner lies atop a lightweight midsole to supply an extra layer of step-in, anatomical comfort. Solyte resides underneath to provide feathery cushioning and enhanced durability. Lighter in weight than ASICS' standard EVA and SpEVA, Solyte helps to spare your joints as you sprint down onto hard, unforgiving pitch surfaces. Embedded within the midsole platform, are the Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL Cushioning Systems. The silicone-like material effectively absorbs shock and protects your feet from high-impact strikes, leaving you at ease to take on the competition. Asics contrast their cushioning with the Dynamic Duomax Support System. Implemented on the medial side and positioned sport-specifically, it helps to control pronation; enhancing stability and support without sacrificing light weight or comfort. AHAR+ Outsole The Trusstic System stretches out under the arch to increase stability; it reinforces the middle part of the sole, stopping it from twisting excessively and therefore diminishing the risk of the inward/outward rolling that might cause injury. An AHAR+ outsole completes the Neo 3; it features an aggressively lugged turf pattern with flex zones where you need them the most.
