First impressions
The ASICS Fuji Lite 3 is a trail shoe, versatile and light weighted, designed with consideration of the planet, with a goal to diminish its environmental impact. I also found out that the inspiration for this model was the Hinoki Cypress tree, known in Japan for its durability and benefits on our mental and physical health thanks to its aromatic scents.
This philosophy and commitment together with the outstanding looks of the shoes after unboxing them (I’ve got the Night shade/ Nova Orange colour), made me very enthusiastic to take them out for a ride on the forest trails.
Technology
The mesh upper is breathable and comfortable. The FLYTEFOAM midsole cushioning provides great shock absorption which is very important feature for a trainer very low to the ground such as ASICS Fuji Lite 3. The ASICSGRIP outsole provides some extra protection and grip on muddy surfaces. This model also has lace garage feature and reflective details both having in mind the safety and security of the runners.
Performance
The ASICS Fuji Lite 3 provides stable ride with great grip and lightness. It is also a very versatile shoe. I used it for interval sessions on the trail but also for some long runs. I especially like the midsole cushioning that makes the shoe bouncy but also preserves its light weight. The grip was great even on muddy and slippery surfaces. Important feature of this model is also the lace garage that holds loose laces and prevents tripping.
Environmental impact
During the design process of ASICS Fuji Lite 3, ASICS worked hard on building a sustainable shoe. Recycled materials were used to form the FLYTEFOAM midsole of the shoe, and they also increased the number of recycled textiles used for the construction of the shoe upper.
Who this shoe is for
ASICS Fuji Lite 3 is a perfect trainer for runners who prefer light trail shoe that in the same is both stable and comfortable. The amount of cushioning in the midsole (FLYTEFOAM technology) provides lots of reactivity which I absolutely loved. This model will also work great as a trail racing shoe for shorter and longer distances.
