A lot of the new trail shoe options on the market are built lightweight for fast non-technical terrain, lacking a rock plate and skimping on cushioning. Some go the other way with overly bulky stack heights and mattress-like volumes of cushioning. 

The ASICS GEL-TRABUCO™ stays true to its legacy as a classic trail model with a much-unchanged shoe suited to various conditions and ready for marathons and ultra trail distances. 

3D printed details on a new upper design help keep the trail’s elements from entering the shoe’s interior. Varying densities of a ripple-like silicon fabric are more prominent towards the outer sector of the upper where it makes contact with the midsole and gradually decreases towards the laces. This firming up of the upper offers structure and support around the whole shoe. 

Double Cushioned 

A 34mm stack height, with an 8mm drop midsole, is consistent with the Trabuco 9 and consists of two ASICS midsole cushioning systems working in tandem to create a comfortable, versatile ride. Flytefoam makes up most of the midsole for solid long-run cushioning. The inner part of the outsole makes use of the denser Duomax foam for extra support.

You’ll also find a rear-foot GEL insert with technology to improve impact absorption and create a softer feeling at footstrike.

Terrain + Traction 

The inclusion of a rock protection plate – using a flexible design – helps shield your foot from rocks and rugged terrain. The outer sole provides traction with ASICSGRIP™ designed rubber that includes 5mm lugs and advanced grip technology for varying terrain. 

Season upon season Trabuco fans come back for more of the same, and that is the best strategy for happiness on the trails. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Fans will be pleased to find that consistency is maintained with the Trabuco 10. 

For newcomers looking for a stability Trail shoe with long-range capabilities and a balance of cushioning, underfoot protection, and upper comfort, the new ASICS GEL-TRABUCO™ 10 is likely just what you need.
