Review on ASICS Gel Contend Women's Running Shoes: Champagne-Colored Athletic Footwear for Women by Jermaine Krishnamoorthy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good in dry weather, slippery in wet weather.

These shoes were comfortable from the start, not very comfortable but my strides felt light and they seemed to handle the jog at a decent pace. However, when I put them on for the first time, it started raining at the end of a long walk. I noticed how quickly the soles became slippery and the grip wasn't that good anymore. Shortly thereafter, I slipped on the sidewalk and scraped my knee quite badly, which is a rare occurrence. When I went for a walk the next day, it was raining too and I started sliding again. So I'll keep them to myself, but they'll only be for dry days, which is sometimes difficult in Oregon.

Pros
  • Shoes
Cons
  • Big and chunky
