I had a pair of Asics Gel Cumulus VII that I wore for probably 2 years ... I still wear them from time to time, the most comfortable shoe I've probably ever had ... about 6 months ago I got a pair of Asics Gel-1150 ... very comfortable shoe, but for the first couple of days I had to break them in, there were a few minor uncomfortable spots with the cushioning in the shoe ... and just today I received a pair of Asics Gel Kanbarra 5 shoes from Amazon ... VERY COMFORTABLE !!! Too early to tell if I will like them as much as my pair of Asics Gel Cumulus VII shoes but right out of the box they felt great !!! Asics are amazingly comfortable shoes. I usually don't use them for running but I do a lot of walking and my feet never hurt !!!
