The Asics Glideride Max is a max cushioned training shoe designed for comfort and bounce over long miles. Priced at $170, it borrows elements from the Nimbus and Novablast in the Asics lineup. With the introduction of the Sonicblast and Megablast, it's likely that this shoe is on the chopping block. Here are my parting thoughts on the GlideRide Max.


(Hobby jogger's note: I have no actual confirmed information that Asics is cancelling the Glideride Max. This is purely speculation and shenanigans.)
