Large Sizes have engineering problems By QRunner from Wakefield MA on 05/10/2009 Cons: Causes Blisters, Uncomfortable, Unstable, Wears Out Easily Best Uses: Endurance Training, Pavement, Running Describe Yourself: Competitive Athlete Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Caution if you have this combination of conditions, large size foot running Marathons. This shoe has a breakdown of the vinyl wings that support the pinky and next toe. The vinyl crimps inward to the foot and creates a friction/stresspoint on the foot. This condition occurred during a 22 mile long run, and was only remediated by cutting the U-shaped vinyl out, which alters the shoe's supportive engineering. I can only say that this occurs for my size.

Asics just can't be beat.

I am diabetic and in the summer it is imperative that I have shoes that allow ventailation to keep my feet cool - these more than fit the bill!!! These shoes are comfortable to the day I find that I have worn them out...by that time Sierra has had another sale and I have bought at least 2 more pairs...I highly recommend them.

By ' Sunseeker ' from Sydney, Australia on 02/23/2009 Pros: Absorbs Shock, Attractive Design, Comfortable, Lightweight Describe Yourself: Gym Rat Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: After reading the reviews and recommendation to buy a half size bigger, it was relatively easy to get it right. Shoes are very comfortable and look great which is what you would expect from 'Asics'. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. Make sure you check for size alterations on the website Ie. ' Run is half size smaller'. Great shoes.

By Stick from Lees Summit, MO on 02/11/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight Best Uses: Everyday wear, Running Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels full size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have flat feet so the appropriate amount of arch support is critcal. I started using Asics about 10 years ago when I took up running. They are comfortable, durable and provide great support. The Asics GEL-Foundation 7 is my favorite pair yet. I use them for daily wear and at the gym. I actually bought two extra pair just in case the next version of Gel Foundation shoes did not reach this level of comfort. I did find that you do need to order 1/2 to 1 full size larger than normal.
