These are great shoes! Great fit. I have over 150 pairs of dress and casual shoes and 20 pair of sneakers. I have several pair of ASICS shoes. Actually I remember when these shoes first came on the market they were really affordable (cheap) and I was in the military and had physical training each morning. That mean lots of runs of 5 to 10 miles a day plus training and working out on my own. These shoes really hold up to a lot of wear and tear. They make shoes of great quality.
