ASICS Hyper Speed

ASICS Hyper Speed: the ultimate racing shoe for fast runners

The ASICS Hyper Speed is designed for runners who go all out for speed and maximum efficiency. Weighing only 210 grams, this lightweight racing shoe is known as a no-nonsense model for athletes focused on training for faster times. Within the ASICS lineup, the Hyper Speed stands out as an affordable racing shoe with neutral support, built for peak performance. Thanks to the 5 mm heel-to-toe drop, you stay close to the ground for a fast and natural stride with every step. The ASICS Hyper Speed is made for competitive runners looking to make a difference on race day.

Technical features for optimal performance

The ASICS Hyper Speed features a breathable mesh upper that feels light and helps prevent overheating during intense efforts. The material wraps comfortably around the foot, allowing you to stay focused on your pace even when the temperature rises. Underfoot, you'll find a cushioned midsole that's noticeably slimmer than traditional training models, yet still offers enough comfort for relatively short efforts at race pace.

What really stands out is the direct energy transfer from heel to toe. The sole is firm enough for a powerful toe-off, while the structure remains flexible for a natural transition. This combination makes the Hyper Speed perfect for runners who want to move efficiently without wasting energy. Every aspect of this shoe is geared toward speed with retained control.

Ideal for 5K to half marathon distances

The ASICS Hyper Speed truly shines on the road, especially at distances from 5 kilometers up to a half marathon. The model feels fast and responsive precisely because it doesn’t have excessive cushioning. That makes it an excellent choice for runners who like to pick up the pace during training but also want to go all out on race day. Use it for tempo runs, short speed sessions, or when you're aiming for a new PR in a 10K race.

The fit runs true to size, so you can usually stick to your regular size. However, it's good to know that the upper is slightly snugger than that of thicker training shoes. It's best to test how the model shapes around the midfoot and forefoot, especially if you plan to run longer races at higher speeds.
