The GEL-VENTURE® 9 shoe has been modified to provide better cushioning. Its materials have been strategically designed for when you're shifting from the outdoors to city streets.​

The midsole has been modified with AMPLIFOAM™ cushioning and a higher stack height. When combined with the rearfoot GEL® technology, these features help create a softer and more comfortable feel underfoot.​

Meanwhile, the outsole features an advanced traction pattern that's functional for the road and trail surfaces.
