Felt great in the store, less great in action - These shoes felt perfect in the store. I have very high arches and have a hard time finding running shoes, so I was initially quite excited. However, after wearing them a few times, they gave me the most horrible blisters on my heels.
simply a dream - love them!! when I put them on, i feel like i could run for hours but of course I can t... ,-))
Great shoes! - I have been running in these shoes since June and I love them. I have a foot that s between a narrow and a medium width, and this shoe fits me just right. I have plenty of room in the toe box and no slipping in the heel. Plus there is plenty of cushioning. I agree with a previous reviewer in that running shoes are a personal type of item and what feels great for one person may not be great for another. But if you have worn ASICS before and you like them, I would give these a try.
heel rubs - I have worn Asics Gel Nimbus 9 s for the past 3 years. I ve been running 20-25 miles a week. I bought these shoes 21 days ago. I have a terrible blister on my left heel, and noticed this morning that the inside of the shoe is already torn. The Gel Nimbus 9 s would do that, but usually after about 6 months - which was when I would need to get new shoes anyway.I m really disappointed. I am going to try to return them today.
Love Asics - I love the Asics shoes better than any other running shoe I ve tried. This one proved to be a great cushion ride and very comfortable on the foot. Not too heavy and extremely stable. Love this shoe. I m a neutral runner that is looking for cushioning and light stability and this shoe delivered. Love Asics and what they do for my feet.
