Details & care

Designed for maximum comfort and balanced support, this versatile running shoe sits on nitrogen-infused cushioning that gently aligns your stride whether you're pounding out the miles or walking around with friends.

Perfect for: Everyday runners looking for plush cushioning and stabilizing alignment to help protect feet and knees in any activity.

Upper: Modern, streamlined fit accommodates a range of foot shapes. Generous padding in the collar and tongue ensures dynamic lockdown as you move.

Midsole Drop: 12mm. Classified as a high-drop measurement, it allows for more cushioning to absorb the impact of heel strikes.

Lower: DNA LOFT v3 foam midsole adapts to your stride to keep you comfortably cushioned from heel strikes to toe-offs. GuideRails® technology supports your body's natural movement while minimizing excess motion. RoadTack Rubber tread puts durable, reliable grip under every stride and every step.

  • Cushioning: absorbs impact and distributes weight for consistent, buoyant comfort under each step
  • Support: enhances the fit with targeted contouring and cushioning in the footbed
  • Hybrid: transitions from a running shoe to a street sneaker with high-performance comfort for any activity
  • Lace-up style
  • Removable, cushioned insole allows for custom orthotics
  • DNA LOFT v3 nitrogen-infused cushioning pairs responsive performance with soft, lightweight comfort
  • GuideRails Holistic Support System controls excess movement in your stride to help protect your knees
  • RoadTack Rubber tread partially made with recycled materials puts lightweight durability and rebound under every stride
  • Synthetic and textile upper and lining/rubber sole
  • Imported
  • Item #11317200

Slip Resistant Ariel GTS 26
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes have saved me from falling with the new slip resistant feature and are so comfortable! I highly recommend them.

Really miss my Ariel 20!
I wear orthotics for over pronation and have a very narrow foot. I wore the previous version of the Ariel for many years and it was great. Sadly, the GTS is way too wide! I tried the Addiction GTS in narrow but it does not have the same side rail support and is not nearly as comfortable. Wish they’d offer the new Ariel GTS in narrow.

Sticking with the 24's (as long as I can still find them)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the Ariel 24 and the 26, not so much. Love the look of the 24, the 26 not so much. Feels and looks like your standing on a platform, with the sides of the shoe butting out left and right. Totally uncool.

Stable and cushioned perfect for an active lifestyle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this shoe! I broke my ankle in October and needed a supported shoe. I have hiked 10 miles (packed gravel) and started spin class again. These shoes have given me the confidence to return to the activities I love without constant worry about my ankle. So confident I may restart running.

Best features for my gait.
I have worn Ariel sneakers for 30 years. Only sneakers that I can wear for stability and comfort.
