What is the difference between ASICS METASPEED SKY and EDGE?
Maximizing performance means different things to different people. And it all depends on your running style. We've created two options to give you what you need when it comes to speed. Many people ask: What is the difference between ASICS METASPEED SKY and EDGE?
METASPEED SKY is for runners who lengthen their strides to run faster. If this is you, you'll appreciate the taller midsole and FF Blast Turbo cushioning that enhances your forward spring to help extend your stride. You'll take fewer steps to get to the finish line with a full-length carbon plate to provide stability and propulsion. The ASICSGRIP outsole gives you the extra traction you need and the breathable soft mesh upper keeps you comfortable on race day or any day you want to run your best.
Increase your speed by lengthening your stride and increasing your cadence with METASPEED Edge designed to support both. The moderate midsole height with responsive FF Blast Turbo cushioning propels you forward. A full-length carbon plate adds stiffness and stability that reacts and returns more energy for efficient forward momentum through your stride. With the extra traction of the ASICSGRIP outsole and the soft breathable mesh upper, you'll be race-ready every time you wear them.
How long do ASICS METASPEED racing shoes last?
While you may find love at first step whether running in ASICS METASPEED SKY vs EDGE, nothing lasts forever. Soles wear down — often unevenly — fabrics fray, and support softens with use.
The durability of your ASICS METASPEED SKY or EDGE is enhanced by the advanced materials we use in their construction, yet they were made to be used. The more you run, the faster you will need to replace them.
Give your ASICS running shoes a good look every month. Is the sole showing wear? Is the tread more worn in one shoe than the other or unevenly in each shoe? Do you feel softness at the midsole? Do you see visible creases? These are signs it's time for a new pair of ASICS METASPEED shoes.
