The Asics MetaFuji Trail shoe is inspired by the carbon-plated racing shoe designed for road marathons. This design results in a smooth, easy-rolling model tailored for brisk-paced running on relatively easy terrain with ample cushioning.
The key to the MetaFuji Trail's performance lies in its midsole, which features a full length carbon plate for rigidity, reactivity, and high profile sandwiched between a generous top layer of FF TURBO superfoam over a FF BLAST+ bottom layer. The FF BLAST+ provides a cushioned bounce for soft landings that adapt to the terrain, while the FF TURBO delivers the firm responsiveness .
The shoe boasts a 45mm stack height at the rear and 40mm at the front (5mm drop). The Motion Wrap TR mesh upper ensures a high-performance fit and breathability, while the premium ASICSGRIP outsole offers secure traction on various surfaces. The ASICS MetaFuji Trail is a high-performance trail shoe designed for experienced runners seeking cushioning, dynamism, and reactivity over ultra distances.

Innovative from the very start, ASICS’ first pair of shoes, produced in 1949, featured a unique recessed sole design, which mimicked the action of an octopus’ suction cup. They were targeted at Japan’s up-and-coming basketball scene and, despite some notable successes of ASICS athletes in the 1950s and 60s, it wasn’t until the 1970s that the company established itself in the athletics world as a go-to manufacturer of running shoes.
Today, ASICS is one of the world’s best known makers of performance shoes and apparel and the true runner’s choice, whether at professional sporting events, the Olympics or on a casual run in the park.
