Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Craze™ TR

I'm very picky with my training shoes. I have to admit I bought these mostly because of how they look, but I ended up with the most comfortable, supportive training shoes I've ever owned. I wear these for weight training, cross training, coffee drinking, dishes washing, email writing, etc. I don't usually write reviews but these shoes are just that good.

I typically wear a size 10 but had to get a 9.5; a perfect fit. I do Crossfit and I have bad ankles and these shoes are comfortable during the workout and has good lateral ankle support. I will buy again.

Great overall fitness sneaker for the gym. I have tried others, but this one feels great, offers great support and fits all my fitness needs at the gym. I am a 9.5W and I had to get a size 10.5. Asics does not offer "wides" in their lineup, so I had to go "1" full size larger.

My husband loves these so much that I'm back ordering another pair while they're still available. He lifts weights, does P90X, and other things that involve jumping. He loves the cushioning and these cured foot pain he was having with pure running shoes.

Very comfortable like all the Gel Asics I've had. For everyday wear beats Nike and Puma hands down.

Excellent. I've tried various other brands and models the past couple years and have been disappointed with the fit and comfort. Some even hurt my feet and/or toes. I come back to ASICS Gel and realize I should have never left. What a fit!

Sizing information and listed weights were very helpful. Size seemed right for a men's 9 and the shoes are very comfortable.

Very stable trainer, like them much better for training than running shoes. While doing warmup on treadmill, they don't have the support of Kayano's but for heavy training (Squats, Deadlifts, Sled pushing etc) they feel much more stable. And they look great to boot!

Love these. I have to put in my own inserts because my arches are high but other then that they have great ankle support and feet good on. I wear them all day, every day. I wish they had more colors.

These shoes are fantastic! I am kind of a cheapskate when it comes to buying shoes and tend to wear them until they fall apart. I reluctantly bought these and have since ordered another pair because they are so comfortable. Zappos has super fast shipping!

So very comfortable. I wish they came in solid black so I could wear them at work. The lacing fits a little weird, but that may just be my feet.

After exchanging a 10.5 for an 11 I'm very pleased with the fit. I've had the shoes for 6 weeks doing P90X3 six days a week and power walking 4 miles 3 days a week. I give the shoe high marks in all areas. They have the right amount of support and are still flexible. These shoes are light and with the mesh they are cool enough. Asics are my new favorite brand. I would be remiss if I didn't mention Zappos...they are the best!

My son loves these shoes. He always goes with Asics and always is happy. As far as Zappos goes, it is practically the only place I buy shoes anymore. If it doesn't work out, you can always send it back- free shipping both ways. Lots of sites trick you into buying from them with free shipping to you, but Zappos actually does the return part. Always go with Zappos! You cannot loose!

These shoes are one of the best blends of comfort and value I have ever had. I was skeptical at first because I saw some reviews saying the shoes didn't provide great support, but I have been using them for a few weeks now and they have been great! I use them for everyday wear and moderate exercise 2-3 times a week and so far I have no complaints. My previous pair of Asics were more expensive and had more cushioning/gel technology, but these are just as good. The best thing about these shoes is that they are so lightweight and provide and allow my feet to breath very well. This is my fourth pair of Asics ever and its safe to say I will only wear Asics.

Snazzy 'sneak', which I have in another color -- same size...but these are a wee bit tight. And so it goes, and goes, and goes.

Best shoe I've ever had. Bought it for running but comfortable enough to sleep in. Recommend.

I bought these shoes for cross training, specifically for P90X3. They are extremely comfortable and give me the stability and support needed when cutting and jumping, something my running shoes were not giving me. Very happy.

I'm never reluctant in ordering from here since reviews are clear, concise and honest. These shoes are rated very highly and with good reason, they're light, supportive, and look great. I wear them for power walking, quick jogs and running errands. In fact they're so comfortable I hate to take them off. I couldn't be more pleased, and they look great!

Great shoes, very comfortable. Exactly what I wanted. Great service, next day shipping!

The sizing of these shoes is pretty close to true. If anything, they run a smidge long. I've had several pairs of Asics over the years--and have always had a 10.5 fit perfectly--and these felt a little longer. It's not enough to order a half size smaller, but I would take advantage of Zappos' easy return shipping and order the two sizes you think will fit you best and choose from there. These shoes work well for those who have wid(ish) feet. I don't have crazy wide feet, but they are wider than usual feet, and I am finding that these--and other Asics shoes--are a comfortable fit. I compare these shoes to my previous pair of shoes, the Gel Lyte 33 (2), which I loved them. They were crazy light; however, they lacked the ankle and heel stability, although that's common among light shoes. The Gel Craze is only a couple (maybe 3?) ounces heavier, yet provide ankle and heel support. it doesn't have as much as support as the 1160 or 2000, but it provides more than the Gel Lyte 33. The only complaint I had about the Gel Lyte 33 was it was not a durable shoe. Within three months, it was already showing significant wear. I was wearing them 4-5 times a week with moderate use (for light running, coaching soccer, and travelling to athletic activities). Although the Gel Craze is very similar in style and structure, it will prove to be more durable given its differences. I think Asics noticed the lack of durability and made structural changes. I would have went with the Gel Lyte 33 (3), but the colors were silly. I m glad I was forced to find a different shoe because I like the Gel Craze better.

I spend most of my workday on my feet, so I really needed a comfortable and sturdy shoe. These fit the bill to a "T", and after a month of wearing them, they are even more comfortable. The flashy red is still flashy and gets a lot of compliments. So far I have no complaints at all.

These Asics are my first. I am amazed how comfortable they are. Also,they fit great,are v light weight, and breath very well.They really seem to grip the ground. The cushion feels like I'm walking on a cloud. Makes me want to walk or run more.

It's fantastic, I love them to walk or run. I use them for work or outside. Very comfortable like walking on clouds. Get them if you are running a marathon, they make you feel like a winner.

I purchased these shoes a couple of weeks ago for the gym. They are great. I went walking with them very comfortable. Not hard on your feet. So I just purchased another pair for everyday wear.

My husband ordered these shoes and he loves them! He says they are very comfortable. He usually wears a size 10 but ordered these in a 9.5 and they fit perfectly. He gets tons of complements on them.
