GEL-PULSE 16

Daily TrainerReleased 2025JP

GEL-PULSE 16 is a neutral daily trainer positioned for regular runs and longer outings, with enough versatility for walking or light gym sessions. An engineered mesh upper supports airflow and a soft wrap, while FLYTEFOAM works with rearfoot GEL to soften impact underfoot. An AHARPLUS rubber heel plug reinforces the high-wear area, giving the shoe a balance of cushioning and durability for repeat training miles.
