5/5

Overall

I have been buying gel exalts for 4 straight years now. I was someone who had pronation issues early in my career wearing nike and addidas but having these shoes has allowed me to reduce pronation and add up miles big time where I could run 70mpw . Not to mention, I could easily go over 1k miles w these and not feel anything in my knees or joints before that PLEASE DO NOT STOP MAKING THIS SHOE ASICS
