The Noosa Tri 15 Seamlessly Blends Triathlon Features Into A Lightweight Trainer
Energize body and mind in the new Asics Noosa Tri 15, a lightweight trainer that’s designed for speed and does so in style. Lightweight FLYTEFOAM® cushioning is used in the midsole to help absorb impact, with an extra 1 mm of foam added in compared to the previous version. The Noosa Tri 15 also utilizes GUIDESOLE® technology, a curved sole design that helps ease you forward as you transition from one step to another.
This running shoe also incorporates triathlon tech throughout, like the tongue tab which makes this trainer faster and easier to slip on and off. Also, the upper is made with an engineered mesh that is lightweight and incredibly breathable. The upper design offers an adaptive fit with plenty of flex to it.

Lightweight slippers
I have lost track of how many pairs of Noosa Tris I have had over the past several years. 6? 7? 8? I love the responsiveness, the roll, and the lightness of this shoe, especially for trail running. (Note, it is NOT classified as a trail running shoe; but I don't like heavy cluncky official trail shoes. I like to feel like I can "spring" off rocks.) I just ran a half trail marathon in them this morning, actually! (And placed first for my age group. Thank you Noosa.) This shoe does not have as much cushion as some of Asics top-of-the-line shoes. But again, to me this feels responsive, whereas a lot of cushion shoes feel "mooshy" IMO. So it depends what you are looking for in a shoe, but I keep buying these again and again because they fit my criteria for what I love in a running shoe. I also love the low drop. It improves my biomechanics. I have been distance running for 40 years, and across models, I have always found Asics to be the best fit for my somewhat narrow heel, and I like their arch support.

Light and bouncy
Buy these shoes every year, especially if they're on sale. Not the best color ways as I don't love loud shoes, but they're super comfy, light, and can do it all.
