The GEL-Dirt Diva 3 employs a women's-specific last and offers high-end performance for the cross-country racer who prefers the comfort and platform of a track spike. The unique outsole employs a combination of PU and nylex to ensure excellent traction on all types of terrain, while the newly designed upper minimizes overlays for a glove-like fit.
From the Manufacturer
In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.
