After reading so many glowing reviews here I ordered the ASICS GT 2160 sneaker, anxiously anticipating the acquisition of a great running shoe.  The order recieved was at least a size smaller than the size id'd on the tongue label... so I returned them.  I reordered a larger size and the delivered reorder shoe beds were lumpy at the ball of the feet locations ... so I returned those for an exchange.  The exchanged sneakers arrived with a heel defect in the right heel which dug into my heel and audibly squeeked when walking on it ... so I returned it as well.  Believing that this sneaker model's gel set up, foot pitch and reputation were fine, a while later i gave this sneaker one more chance and ordered it again, only to have it arrive with a toe room issue in the left shoe and a lumpy heel seat in the right shoe.  The only thing comforting about any of these orders was the great Amazon Customer Support personnel's handling of these problem orders.  Its very obvious to me that ASICS is having serious quality control issues with the manufacturing production of this GT 2160 model ... so, as far as recommending it, all I can say is ... caveat emptor (let the buyer beware)!
