How it ranks
The ASICS GEL-Excel33 3 trails most daily trainers in our data. Cushioning and value are its strongest sub-ratings. Durability scores well below its other sub-ratings. The rating rests on 9 runner reviews and 1 other rated shoe in the GEL-Excel33 product line. Another 3 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.
Confidence
How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.
Confidence
