From the Manufacturer

In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great "gym" shoe, February 18, 2010

I discovered after years of running both outside and on a treadmill, that I loved the Asics. However, not long ago I started doing cardio kick-boxing type classes at the gym, and realized I needed a different shoe...one that could handle the short, rapid side to side and front back movements. I realized this after getting big blisters from doing the classes in my running shoes. From the first time I wore these new shoes in class, they were great! Absolutely no blisters, and they are perfect for the quick back and forth movements. If anything, they may run a touch big, and wide. I am really always an 8 1/2 so that's what I ordered. I probably could not have taken an 8 for the length, so it is the right size, they are just a bit wide...but it has not proven to be a problem at all. The cost was great and I think I am going to order another pair just to have as a spare!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not enough cushioning, April 14, 2010

I've read all of the reviews before purchasing this shoe and unfortunately, most people are using them as walking shoes instead of aerobics (which is what I wanted them for). So, while they may be great for walking, I didn't find them to be comfortable right out of the box, a little too stiff and not nearly enough padding under the ball of your feet for aerobics. Had to return them and purchase a different pair.

Definitely order a size up! I'm a 9 in womens, I bought these in 9.5 and they're still too small! I guess sneaker size is different than boot size.
