I have been running in Asics for 10+ years. 3-5 miles a day. When I received these shoes, they looked good...had a small rip in the front left shoe, but I tried not to let that bother me. So I wanted to wear the shoes around the house so I could get use to how they felt. The next day my legs hurt and my feet were sore??? I also noticed that the shoes had a very strong glue or chemical smell, so I did a little research and found that FAKE Asics often are detected by this strong smell. So I sent them back!
