I got my first pair of Mizuno shoes a couple of weeks ago and love 'em! I had purchased a pair of ASICs, based on the reviews and while I thought they were nice shoes, I had blisters after wearing them twice. Even though I ordered a larger size than what I normally wear in shoes, they just didn't fit my feet well. Mizuno's also were rated high and I ordered a pair, also in one size larger (which I recommend) and they have felt great. They provide great support, especially for my knees. I'm sure when it comes time for me to get a new pair, I'll stick with Mizuno's!
