    Christmas gift for my daughter who runs marathons. Needed new training shoes and likes these a lot. Wore them for the first time on an 8 mile run...no complaints

    Bough these shoes for my wife and she already commented that these are lighter and better to run in than her last pair of Asics. She runs everyday on asphalt so she needs new shoes every 6-9 months. She is very happy with this new pair.

    A slightly updated version of the 1160's which have always been the only Asics that fit me perfectly. The 1170's feel slightly more sturdy, but the fit seems to be the same.

    Asics Gel-1170 was comfortable from day one. It's a great shoe and best of all it seems to help my posture. There's absolutely no wobble when I walk.

    I am recovering from foot surgery and this shoe in wide was perfect. I'm using a custom orthotic and it is an awesome shoe. I wore it to Maui on my first outing.

    ASICS® was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote sports. In fact, ASICS is an acronym from the famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which translates, "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Originating in Kobe, Japan over fifty years ago, ASICS shoes and ASICS clothing were introduced to the United States in 1977. Throughout the years and running beyond today, the ASICS philosophy imparts an incredible story of athletic performance and technical advancements.

    ASICS shoes, apparel and bags are produced in a wide assortment to meet the needs of men, women and kids. ASICS has produced products filled with technological designs and features such as the revolutionary ASICS® GEL® Cushioning System. The ASICS® GEL-NIMBUS® and ASICS® GEL-KAYANO® running shoes have benefited from such innovation and have enhanced the running experience for so many ASICS mens and ASICS womens aficionados. So on any given day, a runner can get fitted from head to toe with ASICS running clothes and ASICS running shoes. A feat Kihachiro Onitsuka would be very proud of to this day.

    Running is one focus for this brand as ASICS produces products for training, volleyball, wrestling, track & field, cheerleading and field sports. ASICS kids shoes and ASICS kids clothing are made for the younger athletic market. Rounding out the brand’s product offering are ASICS bags to help meet the demands of your sporting desires.

    To date, ASICS continues to put forth quality tested products designed to stand the rigors of elite and amateur athletes alike. Willing to try something new, and always staying ahead of the curve is how ASICS manages to stay true to it's namesake.

    I have worn this series for about 10 years starting with the 1060's back in the early '00s. I love these shoes and have owned two pairs of the 1170's. I do wear orthodics with them and I typically wear size 6 shoes but for these running shoes, I wear a size 7. They say typically you want to go up at least a half size in your running shoes but I have always worn a 7. Great shoes, wear about 400 miles and then become work around the house shoes.

    Overall, I like this shoe. I tried several other varieties of shoes before picking this one. I'm marking this shoe's arch as moderate as the last pair of Asics I had felt like the arch was better, but I still really like this shoe.

    I was having problems with severe heel and arch pain, also over pronunciation. Bought 'Keen' sandals and that helped but needed something for the non sunny weather. Reviewed and tried on numerous 'trainers' before I found this. Felt immediate relief, have walked for miles now and still enjoy pain free feet. Great support all over. Within one week no pain. Wear either the Keen's or these all day.Did find needed 10 rather than the size 9 1/2 I usually wear but needed that for Keen's to.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Keen waterproof sandals

    This shoe is my go to for running. Roomy in the toe and super cushy. I have had multiple knee surgeries and they are the only ones that make me feel stable enough. I am an 8 in "regular" shoes and I always get an 8.5 and they are perfect! Highly recommended!
