Review on πŸƒ Unleash Your Running Potential with ASICS Women's Gel Noosa Black Athletic Shoes by Robert Wyble

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great sneakers at a reasonable price

I was a little hesitant to order these as most of the reviews mentioned that they run small. I usually wear a size 8 in running/training shoes, so I went with a size 8.5 based on most reviews. First impression: I love how colorful they are and feel very light. I did a few runs, they were a bit tight on the toes for the first few minutes but got better after a while. I think size 8.5 is perfect for me, size 9 would be too big and get lost, and size 8 would be unbearably small. I'll ride them a few more miles, maybe take a few more to leave them at the office so I can walk around on my lunch break. Overall I am very happy with them, they are very comfortable, light weight, "cute colors" and a great price. However, they definitely go half a size bigger. Updated: 06/24/2015. I've had the opportunity to rack up some real miles in these bad boys and I can't tell you how many corns I've gotten from running 3+ miles. I bought a pair of Brooks Glycerin 12s and even though they cost twice as much I had no problem getting over 10 miles in Brooks. I figured that might be something I did, so I switch back and forth between them and Brooks from time to time. These ASICS always give me blisters as I now run at least 8 miles straight. I have decided to stop running in them and keep them as hiking shoes as they are very light. I walked 4 miles last night and got blisters on 4 toes. I think the problem with them is that they are narrower, although they may seem comfortable at first, but once you've tried them for real miles your feet will hate you.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great
