The ASICS Shield FF – the choice for advanced stability and dynamic movements
In Aquamarine. Also available in Sky & Fruit Punch
We think this ASICS Netball Trainer is perfect for athletes of every level who need to feel confident on court knowing their shoes are providing power and support.
It features a no-sew, seamless panel underneath the mesh upper creating better support while allowing your foot to move more freely.
The midsole combines Trusstic™ and Duomax™ technology and together they improve stability during side-to-side movements and abrupt shifts in direction.
A tri-density midsole including DUOMAX on the medial aspect of the shoe, combines with the 7mm heel to toe drop to help reduce load on the knees.
While, flex groove technology improves flexibility in the forefoot allowing for the smoothest of transitions on court.
All in all, we think you'll love the support and style of this shoe – and it’s worn by these star netballers:
• Taylor McKevitt - Manchester Thunder & England Futures
• Shadine van der Merwe - Manchester Thunder & South Africa
• Kerry Almond - Manchester Thunder
• Ella Powell-Davies - Celtic Dragons & Wales

The Shield FF is my current choice of netball trainer because, put simply, it's the most stable ASICS shoe I've worn giving me increased confidence for the sharp changes of directions involved in our sport.
It's helped my body not just my netball - in the 12 months before I began wearing this shoe, I had pain and irritation with my knees regularly. I've found the heel raise and strategically placed DuoMax in the Shield have really helped by reducing the load placed on them.
Despite having wider-fitting feet, these trainers are light and responsive and, not only do I feel stable, I feel secure - my foot doesn't move inside the trainer at all, allowing me to focus on the game.
And that is key for me - the Shield gives me the confidence that I can move and play with freedom because I have the support, cushioning, traction and comfort that lets me focus on defending the next attack rather than worrying about my next step.
The Shield is my choice - why not try it for yourself, it's available now at Netball UK in
Sky,
Aquamarine and
Fruit Punch.
