## Description

In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

    Look great and are very light. good compromise between traditional and minimal.
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2012*

I wanted something I could use "off road" at the local nature center paths. I have tried a wide variety of shoes over the past year running the gamut from traditional cushioned to full minimal vibram's and Merrell's. The Kinvara 2's have become my favorites and the shoe I compared all others to now. The Gel Racer's compare as well as anythign else I have tried. They have a very simialr feel to the Kinvara's. They are quite as lightweight and have a little greater heel drop differential, but they feel very similar on the foot.The Gel Racer's are supposed to weigh in at around 8.8 oz in a Men's 9 which is about 2 oz's more than the Kinvara's but still on the lightweight side of things as far as shoes go. The heel to toe drop is approx. 6mm which is less then most traditioanl shoes (10-14mm) but more then a true minimal which is usually (0-2mm). 6mm is a good compromise in my opinion. I wear size 12's and that is what I order here. I found the fit to be spot on and these are very comfortable.The upper is well made. Seems to be better quality than the Kinvara's. The heel offers gel cushioning which doesn't mean as much to me as I tend to run more on my midfoot and forefoot these days, but even on hard roads the rear of the shoe is very comfortable. The forefoot is not really that well padded, again in line with minimalism. The material is much tougher than that found on the kinvara. There is a rock plate enclosed as well. On actual trails the traction is great and padding fine. On hard road surfaces the padding isn't quite there if you are going on longer runs on a purely paved trail. 5k-8k or so is fine but I don't know if I would go longer on a hard surface. Again though this is a trail shoe and on grass and dirt or a mix of trail/pavement this is a great shoe. I have run an 8k trail race in it in addition to training with it and the shoe performed very well.Color is nice as well. I went with the purple, black, yellow and it looks great. Overall a great shoe for trail racing.

    Fits about 1/4 to a 1/2 size small due to the stiffness
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2013*

I only do light trail running and just finished a mud run in these.Cons:1) Fits a little small. Especially in the upper just behind the toebox area on the top. Basically the first shoelace. I've done the trick of flipping the shoelace over in the way it ties and so now with very thin socks, it works well. The rest of the shoe is true to size. I am currently wearing my true to size as I did try upsizing, but found that the place where the shoe bends wouldn't match my foot. So I deal with the slightly tight fit but just leaving the laces loose up front and tight at the ankle.2) A little stiff in the sole. This shoe does have a light rock plate along with a one piece outsole which stiffens the whole thing up. This isn't too bad a thing, but I would prefer a little more flexibility under the ball of the foot.3) Picks up water fast. This is related to its ability to also drain it fast. See below.4) Upper is rough. Rough enough that along with the tight upper (see above), I have to wear thin polyester wicking socks, otherwise I develop blisters within 2.5 miles. I prefer sockless, but in the case of trail running where sand and pebbles can fall into your shoe no matter what, I guess running in socks is fine.Pros:1) Light for a trail shoe.2) Heel drop feels even lower than the 6mm spec. Feels more like a 4-5mm spec. This allows me to run very naturally.3) Supportive but light. I'm not too worried about twisting my ankle or having my foot slip around much in this shoe.4) Good protection for trails. Toe bumper is strong enough for most toe-stubbing rocks and the mesh is like triple layered so scratches against shrubs and the like won't cut you. The Asics logo itself is also good support and protection as it's firm.5) Drains water FAST. It's got 4 holes in the bottom of the sole and the sock liner is perforated. So if you go fully immersed in water, it'll fill up and after maybe 400 meters after as you squish squish squish it out with each step, the water is nearly gone. It's mostly your sock keeping water at that point and I haven't found it too unbearable.6) Stylish? I didn't like the purple yellow Laker scheme in the beginning but it grew on me and I've gotten compliments.7) Durable and cleans super fast. I've hosed it out after every single run and the thing doesn't feel broken down at all and looks brand spanking new.

    Great trial shoes!
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2013*

These are my first trail running shoes, so I can't really compare to other than my regular running shoes.  Overall, I'm really pleased with them, completed my first 10K run with no complaints at all!  The shoes are very light, comfortable, and look good.  I had to run across a couple of streams, and the shoes didn't soak up much water and dried pretty fast.  They're definitely minimalist in design, as you can feel the terrain under your feet, but I prefer that for trail running.  The tread is not too extreme, so you have good grip in most surfaces, from street to gravel to mud.  However, I'm thinking these are probably not suitable for more extreme trail races.I did notice the shoes to be a tad smaller than I though, so I recommend getting about a half-size larger than you usually wear.  But overall, I totally recommend these and would not hesitate to buy another pair!
