These Asics are great, I remember I bought them at a Dicks sporting store on sale for $20.00, it was amazing. So upon these shoes, first thing I noticed was the colors (obviously). These colors are great in my opinion and matching a shirt or shorts doesn't really have to be a bother at all.  These shoes do stand out on their own, I remember I had these more for walking and every day use. Now take into consideration I am flat footed, I weighed about 152-160 at the time I owned these. They lasted for about 4-5 months, but thats with every day use.  When running in these, I never had any shin split problems, but the insoles you might want to consider. I would buy gel insoles to replace the ones that come with the shoe.  These shoes are made pretty cheap but definitely work and are worth the money.  The only thing I noticed when they started to wear off, the front tip of the shoe started to peel off and then decided it was time to throw them out.

Remember, I used them every day and for walking and sports practices for warm ups. So they went through a lot of miles of walking and weather, but they definitely are comfy ones.
