ASICS WALKING WELLNESS WALKER 1983
As a series focused on knee care within WELLNESS WALKER’s CARE area, it was developed to help people with knee concerns walk with confidence. GEL cushions impact at landing, while the patented MCCS corrects the knee angle at landing to help reduce strain. It also features a thick sole, a rocker-bottom design, and a wider fit, making it a function-focused line that supports improved walking movements and ease in daily life.
