I have worn ASICS for years now and love them.  Based on the reviews I went with the ASICS Women's GEL-Blur 33 TR Cross-Training Shoe.  I find it difficult locating  the color black in a  cross-trainer shoe.  The shoe is a very nice in appearance. The problem I had was the shoe opening was so small, I had to unlace three holes down before I could get them one. Once I had them on and relaced they felt really comfortable.  I am an average size woman and don't have big ankles are anything.  I thought it was just because they were new and would break in.  I tried them on several times and still had the same problem.  I ended up returning them and reodered ASICS Women's GEL-Upshot Training Shoe I currently have.
