Serviceable stability shoe

Anonymous runner · Jan 24, 2020

5/5

Overall

I've had several stability shoes (New Balance Fresh Vongo, v880, Brooks Ravenna 9, etc.) and these ASICS were probably my 2nd best shoe. I've had decent mileage on them (around 300-325miles), and practically injury-free while wearing them. They are not as comfortable as the Ravenna, and you'll notice a more grounded feel, but they are cheaper so they are great in a pinch.

Best running trainers I've bought

Anonymous runner · Jan 2, 2020

4/5

Overall

When I first started running I got shin splints from my previous trainers and decided to go to a shop and ask for recommendations when these trainers where recommended. Less than a couple of weeks later my shin pain was gone. These trainers have been very durable and versatile as I've been wearing them on road, track, hills and cross country races and they have been great for each. I recently bought a new pair of the same shoe and they are equally as good

I love running

Anonymous runner · Dec 29, 2019

Overall

The asics shoes are very comfortable and durable. My shoes have been through a lot: mud, snow, ice, and many deep puddles of standing water. These shoes definitely have over 350 miles on them. The support is starting to fade away, but normally my shoes' supports start to fade at 200 miles . When I first got my shoes, they looked so nice. These soes are so amazing. I highly recommend.
