The GEL-CONTEND™ 7 running shoe offers excellent cushioning, durability, and support. It features an engineered mesh upper that adapts to the foot's natural motion, while synthetic stitching on the overlays enhances support. Designed with sustainability in mind, the shoe uses fewer resources to color the sockliner. The cushioning system includes rearfoot GEL™ technology, a durable AMPLIFOAM™ midsole, and an ORTHOLITE™ sockliner for superior shock absorption and comfort. GUIDANCE LINE™ technology promotes a natural stride, and flex grooves in the outsole enhance flexibility for a smooth transition from footstrike to toe-off.
