cushioning technology

Cushioning technology refers to specialized materials or designs used in footwear and sports equipment to absorb impact and reduce stress on the body. These systems typically involve foam, gel, air pockets, or other innovative materials that compress upon impact, providing a softer, more comfortable experience and enhancing performance. The goal is to protect joints and muscles during activity by distributing shock evenly and minimizing strain. Modern cushioning technology is often engineered to be lightweight, durable, and responsive, optimizing comfort without adding unnecessary weight or bulk.
