Order half a size larger!

I'm glad I read the reviews and ordered a half size up. I spend more than 7 hours a day on my feet for work and these are my favorites. I had an older model and they lasted almost 4 years (not really, I had a toe that stuck out but I carried on) and I knew I needed the exact same ones as a replacement. I won't lie, the upper doesn't feel that durable (that's why 4 stars) and I can already tell that after a month of wearing them they don't last that long, but that's ok. If I get a year I will be

Pros
  • Imported
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Narrow and tight even when sized correctly

Bought for work. I'm on my feet most of the day so I needed comfortable and comfortable shoes. Knowing that Asics is a great shoe brand in general, I'm sadly disappointed in them. I ordered my correct size but they still feel snug (even with a thin sock) and feel very snug. I thought maybe they just needed breaking in, but after a week and a half they still hurt my legs and crush them. I even went as far as trying different laces, but in the end it didn't make much of a difference.

Pros
  • Shaft measures about low at top of arch
Cons
  • Doubtful

Like the shoes, they had to go up a half size.

I was lucky with Asics shoes. I need a stable shoe with good arch support, but I hate to pay the price that many other brands charge. I could easily spend 120-150€. I can usually buy Asics under $100. And they come in many colors, although Revane didn't have that many colors. I always have 8-8.5. 8.5 wasn't, took 8. Too small. I found 8.5 on Zappos owned by Revain so I think this review covers both. Size 8.5 came up but seemed to be too long. The GT-2000 is perfect for the 8.5, but the 1000's…

Pros
  • ComforDry insole: Removable insole that provides cushioning and moisture wicking for cooler, drier and healthier environments.
Cons
  • No automatic

Doctor recommended for road running

ASICS is a good solid running shoe but it has changed over the years Order a 7.5 or 8 WIDE, I've never worn wide shoes so they run small . Also, I have a definite problem with the heels, the material on the heels comes off first and I would say within the first two weeks of wearing! I bought the matching colored felt and had to sew the heel on to cover up where the material had torn, exposing the welt of the shoe. They need to work on a more durable heel material and definitely let people know…

Pros
  • Rubber outsole
Cons
  • Upgrades

I've only run about 12 miles in these shoes so I'm still trying to decide but overall they are very good. The Asics GT 1000 has been my favorite running shoe for a long time. I feel like versions 5 and 6 are a bit smaller compared to previous years. I usually wear these shoes in a size 6, but I tried these shoes in a size 6 and they were too tight for me, so I went up a half size. They're still my favorite brand of shoes and every pair I've bought have been ready for long runs out of the box…

Pros
  • IGS (Impact Control System) Technology: ASICS design philosophy that uses linked components to enhance the foot's natural gait from heel landing to toe-off.
Cons
  • So So

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…

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.
