The Guide 18 is our central training shoe with maximum cushioning. It combines our soft and responsive PWRRUN foam with our exclusive Center Path technology, which centers and supports the foot to provide a premium underfoot feel. It maintains a standard midline, increases the height of the sidewalls, and is built on a rocker shape to facilitate the roll-through.
Maximal cushioning shoes feature a wide base geometry, allowing the foot to sit deep in a stable platform, resulting in an exceptionally well-cushioned running experience that also offers protection and inherent support.
The Center Path Technology is an asymmetrical geometry that centers the foot from lateral impact to toe-off, providing a consistent, balanced, and supportive running feel.
The much softer and more responsive PWRRUN foam underfoot ensures soft and comfortable miles with ultimate protection.
The XT-900 carbon rubber outsole provides durable traction, while the breathable and supportive mesh upper ensures versatile comfort.
