5.0 out of 5 stars The Best So Far, October 9, 2009

This review is from: ASICS Women's GEL-150 TR Training Shoe (Apparel)

I have had these shoes for a couple of months and they are by far the best fitness shoe I have come across in the last ten years. It is important to keep in mind that the White/Storm/Lilac shoe is a slightly different design from the White/Blue/Silver in terms of material used for the upper. I have the White/Blue/Silver which has the more solid leather-style upper with minimal mesh, whereas the other is a primarily mesh upper. I am testing a pair of the competitor's fitness shoes that have the primarily mesh upper and I have to say that these Asics are far superior. I wear a 7.5 US with a medium width and the Gel-150TR shoes fit true to size. They are comfortable, with just the right amount of cushion on the inner sole and the perfect arch support for someone with average to slightly high arches. With every other fitness shoe I have tried I have needed an arch supporting insole just to keep my arches from spasming, but that problem is nonexistent with these shoes. They are holding up well both structurally and aesthetically and I plan on buying another pair in a couple of weeks "just in case." The shoes I fall in love with always seem to go out of style and these are far too comfortable and cute to miss out on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not true to size!, October 15, 2009

I have owned many pairs of Asics over the years and one thing I've learned is they do not run true to size. Never experienced this problem with other brands of sport shoes only with Asics. If you need an 8, order an 8 1/2, etc. That is why I gave this only 4 stars. This is the first time I've purchased this model GEL-150 Training Shoe. I wear a 7W but a size 7 in Asics is usually too short and is more like a 6 1/2 so I ordered this shoe in 7 1/2W The length is exactly like a a 7 so I'm happy about that, however, even though it is W width it is not a true wide (just slightly more roomy than a medium width - and Asics does not make WW). It fits ok as long as I do not wear thick sport socks. Now for the positive features of this shoe. It has excellent arch support for those who have fallen arches or have flat feet and if you need special arch support you can substitute your own orthotics. It also has great stability to keep your foot from pronating. All in all it is a good shoe but I do wish that Asics would make their shoes in true sizes and widths.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not All They Used to Be, November 30, 2009

These cross-training shoes used to be made well and were very comfortable and supportive. Through the years I've gone through several pairs. My latest pair was disappointing, though, because the sides of the shoe don't come up as high, therefore the laces wind up covering more of the top of the foot. The result is that they provide less support to the sides of the feet. My feet get tired faster and I don't feel as stable when exercising. I assume this was a cost-cutting measure by the manufacturer. I will try other brands in the future.
