© www.motioncontrolrunningshoes.org - ASICS GEL-Foundation 9 is a maximum support running shoe for over-pronators who not only require a secure fit, but who also want enough cushioning and support during those long runs. ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 is a flagship of ASICS maximum support line and takes comfort to a higher level. Learn what the differences and similarities are between these two ASICS motion control running shoes.
Both running shoes consist of a breathable mesh upper, but the overlays in the ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 consist of a softer material, which bends and moves along better with your feet than that on the ASICS GEL-Foundation 9.
Another key difference in overlays is the placement of the ASICS logo. This logo runs from mid-lace area to the midfoot and from between the forefoot and midfoot to the back of the heels on the ASICS GEL-Evolution 6, while it runs from the mid-lace area to the midfoot and from between the forefoot and the midfoot to the medial collar area on the ASICS GEL-Foundation 9. What this means is that the ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 might give you a tighter fit and feel from front to back.

I'm trying to decide between the asics gel evolution 5 or the gel foundation 9(when it drops in June). I have a problem with shin splints from overpronating in addition to being overweight. I did some research and came across the these two motion control
I love my Asics Foundation 8's and am looking forward to buying the 9's when they come out in June. Why pay the extra money for the evolutions if it's a toss up?
