Up to this point in time the dozens of Asics I have purchased over the years have served me well.  This time, however, I am submitting my first negative review of Asics, particularly in their quality control department.<br /><br />I bought two pair of the identical model, Gel-Nimbus 16, but different colors.  So why would one pair fit perfectly [white/blue] while the other [Chinese red/green] feel much tighter/more narrow.  Made sure I laced them up the same exact way and still one feels too snug.  Rather than sending back I am just wearing thin socks with the tighter pair.
