Thanks! We'll notify you as soon as we add new styles for ASICS.
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 bought these shoes for my job, which entails a lot of running around and climbing on shelves - I work in a warehouse - and for walking my dog. These were great initially - tons of cushioning, and they molded to my foot perfectly. Just recently, however, I wore through the inner front part of the sole area (where the big toe is) on both shoes - so much so that I'm limping by the end of the day. Four months seems a little too short of life for shoes. I usually can get around six months of wear from my shoes. Maybe I was just too hard on them, but either way, buyer beware. If you are on your feet a lot and give them a good pounding daily, I would look at something more durable. If you are looking for more casual wear, these are perfect. Pretty sad these didn't last longer, but they were pretty inexpensive, I guess.

I tried twice, but could not get either pair to work. I even tried mixing and matching. On the first pair, I could see that the sole was not properly placed on the right shoe. On the 2nd pair, there was just something poking me a bit on the right shoe in the heel area. I have bought Asics for years, and I will still stand by them, but something may have happened to the quality recently.

These are very comfortable right out of the box. No break in time was needed. They are airy and lightweight making them good for summer walks.

After my heart surgery, I received a pair of Asics and it was unbelievable to walk in. Since then, I've tried Reebok, Avia, New Balance, and always returned to Asics. This last pair is the best yet and would recommend Asics to anyone and at an time. Zappos has been fantastic in their handling of my order, and I received my last pair within 36 hours after ordering.

I bought these for work at a warehouse where I'm on my feet for 12 hours a day on concrete. They were very comfortable until they wore out. I got about 6 good months out of them, and then a couple of so-so months after the soles were crushed. For light use they might last quite a while. Only other issue was that the little piece of rubber sole that folds over the toe at the front came unglued after about a month on both shoes. The rest of the sole stayed glued the entire time I owned these.

I did not dislike this shoe. However, I did not purchase it, because compared to the other two I was trying, this one felt a little flat, like it didn't have enough cushioning. I like lots of puffy cushioning. Otherwise, it felt stable and good. I've never had an Asics shoe before, but I was impressed with all 3 that I tried. Also, I'd prefer a shoe without so much white, as I keep my shoes for many years, so since it wasn't more comfortable, the others won. http://www.zappos.com/asics-gel-strike-2-lightning-black-lightning, http://www.zappos.com/asics-gel-kanbarra-5-silver-black-royal
