Review on ASICS Women's GT-1000 6 Running Shoe: Ultimate Performance and Comfort for Female Runners by Smiley Edwards

Revainrating 1 out of 5

More uncomfortable (after 3 pairs)

Not the same shoes anymore. I always take 1 size bigger. I have loved this brand for many years. In the last 3 orders I have ordered shoes of this type, they hurt, even a whole size bigger and wider. Where leather jewelry on the outside of the shoe is a sore point. The decorative zone causes pinching of the foot. I have bruises and redness in this area. It never occurred to me that it could be. The side of my leg is injured and hurts enough to make me limp. I spoke to two independent shoe retailers who sell this and other brands. They said everyone complains that these shoes feel a lot smaller and more painful (must have been a money saving tip to save that extra cut). I will never buy this brand again. I hate them. I had 3 old couples who were very comfortable. I recently bought 3 pairs of new, very uncomfortable ones. They returned 2 and I put on 1 one day thinking they were going to become "unusable". Therefore I cannot return it. I'm stuck with a $120 pair of shoes. Avoid this brand anymore at all costs. They were comfortable shoes, but nothing more.

Pros
  • GEL Rearfoot Cushioning System: absorbs shock during the impact phase and ensures a smooth transition to the middle position.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
