"Aisics for heavy guys"

These a great shoes if you are over 200 lbs. They give nice cusion and support, and the 4E's are nice if you need them. I ran a marathon in the rain and found out that 4E is too wide for me. 4 stars

"Good shoe, but order a 1/2 to 1 size up"

These are great, especially if you are heavier or a moderate pronator or have trouble with flatter feet. ORDER 1/2 or 1 SIZE UP! I typically wear a 9.5, and they were WAY too small. Save yourself a bother and order up. Nice construction, good support, comfortable so far. 4 stars

"Good Shoe for Over-Pronator - They wear out a bit quick though"

I'm on second pair of these shoes - I liked them so much I bought a second pair after getting about 6 months out of the first pair. I do about 3-5 miles about 5 times per week - I've had other brands last a lot longer, but at present, these shoes are exactly why my old feet need! So, for the somewhat short life span, I'll deduct one star...

4 stars

"Reduced my Shin splints to a great extent."

I overpronate moderately. I bought these primarily to control my overpronation. So far it has done it's job well. I used to have severe shin splint while running. Now after having used these shoes for over a month, my shin splints have greatly reduced. It fits great and supports my ankle well. The slight discomfort in my ankle immediately after running is completely gone after running in these shoes.

By the way I am about 145 lbs with a small built. I run about 10 miles weekly at under 8 mins a mile. 5 stars

"Great Ride"

Great Shoe for the pavement runner. I needed a stable shoe for Sheriff Academy and went to the high priced running store. They recommended the Asics Gel Foundation. These shoes are a great ride! 5 stars
