Comfort - I was advised by my foot specialists to get this shoe in order to help with the problems I am having with one of my feet. After I received the shoe I can walk, stand and do pretty much anything without the pain and will continue to wear the shoes when I do a lot of walking, etc. and until such time as my foot heels.

The shoe fits true to size. I buy this shoe for tennis because they are light weight and my heel sits lower than my toes. It helps with plantar fascia problems.

I used these shoes for about 2 months while playing squash. First of all, the soles wore thin very quickly around the toe. The fit was a bit bigger than the other models of Asics I’ve owned (running shoes such as Landreth 3 & 4) and as such left a lot of room in the shoe for my foot to slide around in. I blistered up nearly every time I used them, but never more severely than this past weekend. I can barely walk. Needless to say, I spent the extra money and bought a higher end court shoe for squash with a better fit.

Red Asics - I like the new shoes, but they are not as comfortable as other Asics that I own. They are Gels but not as cushioning as other Asics Gels, still like the shoes though.

Good shoe - This crosstrainer fits well and is true to size. It is a refreshing design combining royal blue and white.

Good badminton shoes - I needed good shoes for playing badminton on indoor courts. After researching available options, I decided on the Asics Gel Rocket based on good grip and flexibility features. I've used my new shoes for about a month. So far I'm satisfied with my on-court performance in these new shoes!

Trust the reviews on sizing! I wish I did. These run a full size too small! I wear a true 6 and my heels were over the end! Sent back to order up a size - what a hassle!!!
