The Asics Gel-Ace Pro M Standard, in the Black / Pure Silver colorway, emerged onto the market in May 2022. This golf shoe is a direct descendant of ASICS's renowned running shoe lineage. It represents the brand's pioneering venture into the PGA TOUR-validated footwear sector within the North American market, setting a new standard for performance and style.
Designed explicitly for the demands of the golf course, the Gel-Ace Pro M Standard excels in providing both performance and comfort. It incorporates ASICS GEL® technology, strategically positioned under the heel, and FLYTEFOAM® technology to deliver exceptional cushioning. The ultralight FlyteFoam construction ensures the shoe feels remarkably light, enabling golfers to maintain peak performance throughout their game.
The Gel-Ace Pro M Standard has made its mark, most notably showcased by Hideki Matsuyama. At the BMW Championship in Wilmington, Delaware, on August 22, 2022, Matsuyama's presence in the Gel-Ace Pro M Standard was a testament to its design. The shoe's influence extends beyond mere functionality, embodying the fusion of advanced technology and golfing prestige, as seen across various PGA Tour locations, cementing its status within the sport.
The upper is meticulously crafted from waterproof, soft synthetic leather, ensuring both durability and comfort. Key features include Comfort Ankle Padding, inspired by the brand's running shoe legacy, and the MONO-SOCK® Technology Fit System, providing a sock-like fit. The design integrates Wrap Up TPU Trusstic System® technology, paired with an FG Traction Sole Pattern and strategically placed ProFlex Spikes, to enhance stability and grip during the golf swing.
