ASICS METASPEED EDGE TOKYO Running Shoes

Built for runners who want to start fast and finish faster, the ASICS METASPEED EDGE TOKYO is a lightweight carbon-plated racing shoe engineered specifically for cadence-style runners. Designed to help you increase your stride frequency while conserving energy, it combines an ultra-responsive midsole with a curved sole and carbon plate to create a fast, efficient ride from the first kilometre to the last.

The standout feature is ASICS' new FF LEAP™ foam, a lightweight and highly bouncy material positioned in the upper layer of the midsole to deliver exceptional energy return and cushioning. Beneath it, FF TURBO™ PLUS foam adds another layer of responsiveness while helping create a more stable platform through mid-stance.

A full-length carbon plate works with the shoe's curved sole geometry to promote forward propulsion and help reduce energy loss as the race progresses. The result is a smooth, aggressive transition that is particularly suited to runners who rely on quick, efficient turnover rather than dramatically lengthening their stride.

At just 170g, the METASPEED EDGE TOKYO feels exceptionally light underfoot, while the MOTION WRAP™ 3.0 upper provides a secure, locked-in fit without adding unnecessary weight. Underneath, ASICS' ASICSGRIP™ outsole provides reliable traction across road surfaces.

Whether you're chasing a new 5K PB, racing a half marathon or taking on your next marathon, the METASPEED EDGE TOKYO is built for one thing: going faster for longer.
