Pros: Light, Attractive, Good Arch, Nice Cushion, Fit Normal Size Feet Cons: Not a very good tread on bottom. Made for roads.
Well, I'm out for yet another Cross Country season and what do I need, a new pair of running shoes. I go over to the extremely packed mall and go to Dicks (A Sports Store) and go over to the shoe section. The first shoe that I see, on a nice display,...
Pros: Great support and durability Cons: A little stiff at first and a bit pricey.
I've been running competitively for more than 12 years. I've ran in nearly all the major brands of shoes, but I have always come back to Asics. And, for me, there is no other shoe anymore. There are more cushioned shoes on the market, but I feel Asics...
Pros: Great fit, improved styling from previous years, and durability. Cons: A bit pricey, but who can put a price on good running shoes?
I have been running for about 5 years now and i have just destroyed and abused almost all the major shoes brands. In 2001 i tried Asics for the first time and was i ever satisfied in fact, I'm still wearing these puppies as i write this review. Well...
Pros: excellent compromise between cushioning and support Cons: pricey - grip on wet / slippery roads
I have been running daily for a while now and so far I did not pay much attention to the running shoes. Not that I ran on just any shoes, but any 60$ pair of running shoes was as good as anything for me.
I've been running since I was 15 and realized I was too short to still compete in basketball. Like many runners, I've had my share of injuries (i.e. stress fractures, shin-splits, sprains, and various other sorts of discomfort). It should come as...
Pros: Comfortable, stable. Cons: Price's a little steep, heavy.
When I first starting running, I had a pair of Pumas I got LONG ago, and when I decided to change to a proper pair of shoes, I wasn't that knowledgeable about my needs. So, I got myself the Asics' top-of-the-line shoe, following the wrong mantra of, "If...
Pros: Very cushioned and comfortable, good stability, good for heavier runners Cons: Ugly, slightly heavy, possible blister issues for some
*Update* I wrote one review on the Kayano 9. I have since also purchased a pair of the Kayano X, so I will add that review. Kayano 9 I recently decided to try to get back into shape again after 5 years off from running. I weighed 190 ...
Pros: Best running shoe ever Cons: Expensive...but I'd pay double for them.
I'm a "get up in the morning and run a couple miles" kind of guy so I don't claim to be an expert. I've always had nagging shin splint pain whenever I run over a certain distance. I even went to a podiatrist and he didn't find anything wrong. Long ...
Pros: All around comfortable shoe. Cons: Have to sell firstborn to afford on a pauper budget.
I have tried so many different kind of running/crosstraining shoes that it isn't funny. I have done Nike, New Balance, Reebok, Asics, etc. Well I bought a pair of Asics off of the internet a couple of years ago and loved the shoes. Well when it was ...
These have been the best for my feet that I've owned. Stability and cushioning - although compared to others, a bit heavy, but at my pace it's not noticeable. I've run a couple of races in them and recorded pr's (5K is down to 21:50) so the weight at...
Pros: Nice road running shoes Cons: Not Durable, bad on trails, nothing like the previous model
Well I bough these shoes because I bought the 98s and they were one of the most comfortable, yet the least durable Asics I have ever worn. I ran a lot on trails in 98 and I though that the next year’s shoe would be comparable. Well I guess I was wrong....
Pros: fits like a glove Cons: higher price than last year
2000 Kayano
Once again Asics make the annual upgrades to their hot shoes. This year the Kayano is looking good. I have run on the last two versions of the kayano and I am liking the shoe better each year. Asics spent some time working on the heel...
Pros: I think i'm going to marry these sneakers Cons: the high arc sometimes gets alittle annoying but nothing to worry about
When I tried these white and yellow sneakers on, I felt like a new man. A fast and stylish man. Then I fell and was laughed at. But let's not talk about that. We're hear to talk about the Kayano's. Alright, I worked at a sneaker store and actually...
The gel Kayano is Asics' top of the line model. It combines all the features of the lower performance shoes into one attractive package. While this shoe excels at cushioning, it also has above average stability and protection for overpronators. ...
Pros: Many revisions were made for the 2000 model Cons: The Duomax was too intrusive causing heel pain similar to having a large rock in your shoe
The Gel-Kayano is supposed to be Asics premier running shoe. The ’99 model turned out to be a big disappointment. The shoe was recommended to me by a few of my teammates. The dual density midsole (Duomax) for support, was very invasive and I could...
