Newer shoe models were starting to seem to radical.  I wanted a traditional shoe that was durable and provided great cushioning.  I got it with this Asics Gel-Crossover.  great support when cutting and changing direction.  Slightly more weight than some of the ultra-light shoes available, but the benefits of fit, cushioning and stability far outweigh any techno-lab perceived benefits of marketing or science that the big shoemakers are shoving at us.
