Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Craze TR 4

Love the shoe but it is shorter than the almost same shoe I bought last year. I used to wear an 8.5 in Asics but last year I had to buy a 9 and now the new 9 I just got in the mail is, again, shorter than the shoe I got last year. Do not have this problem with any other brand. Disappointing that Asics is no longer consistent in sizing.

I wear these for everyday gym workouts and also to teach TurboKick and do classes like INSANITY. I love that they have more support at the ball of the foot, and they are super lightweight. I have plantar fasciitis in my left foot, and these shoes allow me to jump around relatively pain-free! Love em!

These tennis shoes are fantastic and they look great! I take special care in selecting shoes as I have a "special needs" foot post 2 surgeries and can say that these shoes fit perfectly, there is no stitching across the joint of the foot and for me, they fit true to size. I also find that the "toe box" is not an issue nor do I have any slippage in the heel area while working out. I am no longer suppose to be running, so having a well structured "training" shoe that fits, is comfortable and allows me to work out without foot pain is a total bonus - Thank you ASICS, YAY!

Great show! I have plantar fasciitis and my podiatrist recommended either this brand or new balance. I needed a good cross trainer for the gym, something with a flat bottom so I can do lunges without the wobbly-ness of my weak ankles... I have asics running shoes and love, but I like the new balance style of the trainers. Started with them but there was not enough support or cushion. These were 99% better. So happy I returned NB for these. Don't get me wrong, they're still stylish but not exactly what I was wanting. I'll take comfort over style anyday when it comes to my feet.

I had a prior version of this shoe, and love them! These shoes are just as good. They're great for workouts involving plyometrics.

These shoes are very comfortable. They feel like my feet are getting a hug. Great support for my feet (planter fasc but no pronation). I've also gotten several compliments on how they look at the gym.

The shoe was overall too small. Reordering a larger shoe and hoping it works!

I thought these were going to work for my bunions when I first put them on. But after walking around the house in them for about 15 minutes I noticed my bunions were starting to feel squished, and then became painful. Just goes to show you can't always tell if a shoe is going to work for your without walking around in them for a few minutes. Thanks to Zappos for home delivery so I could wear them around the house to determine if they were really going to work for me. They are an "almost, but not quite" fit for my bunions.

These are my 3rd pair of Gel Craze. I mainly use them for low impact weight workouts at the gym. They are the perfect shoe for those type of workouts. They are also cute and attractive. I have only worn them once since I got them, and that was to work. I am a teacher and they were comfortable straight out of the box.

I purchased these sneakers for cross-training and dance cardio. They fit a little snug width-wise, but I prefer that in this case so that there's no danger when doing lateral movements. I like that they are low profile while still maintaining support (I have had plantar fasciitis in the past). So far, so good!

I picked these up to wear during my workouts at the gym. I've worn ASICS before. I had to go up a half size with this style. Would like more arch support & a little more cushion. Overall I'm happy with them.

Zappos recommended a half-size larger in these than I usually wear. These are too big. The toe box is too wide and my toes hit the top of the shoe when walking. I always wear an 11M and these are an 11.5.M. It's unfortunate that I have to return yet another pair of shoes that don't fit. I've had quite a struggle lately with various shoes that I've ordered lately from Zappos. Sizing from brand-to-brand is just not consistent. I feel badly about returning so many shoes. Size 11's are not always available at retailers, so I cannot try before buying. This is a nice-looking shoe, and I imagine in the proper size that it would be very comfortable.

Shoe was comfortable right out of the box. Wear them for kettlebell classes, and like the flexibility of the shoe.

It is so difficult to find a good cross trainer that are not too flat and offer good support, but I finally have! The only problem is that Asics is prejudiced against people with wide feet, so they don't make this shoe in a wide. Fortunately, the men's version worked for me--this does not always work--it didn't with the Asics Quantum, but thankfully it worked for this shoe! I use Powerstep inserts and they fit in these fine, especially since these have the extra hole at the top to lace with a heel lock. These needed no breaking in. They are comfortable (once I got the men's model) right out of the box. I normally wear Brooks Ghost, in a 9.5 wide (women's, since I'm a woman), and these feel similar in terms of shape and comfort, though the Ghost, being a running shoe, sits a bit higher and feels plusher. I like the Asics gel in particular for cross trainers, because you get the cushion without it getting "smushy" and unstable. These feel secure for aerobics during lateral movements, which is always my biggest concern. Overall, I'm really happy with these--thrilled, in fact, to find a good cross trainer, except that I had to get the men's version and give up the pretty colors, since Asics refuses to accommodate women with wide feet. So, Asics misses out on getting me to buy two pairs to have them in different colors, but at least I have something that works for my workouts!

I have had several ASICS shoes and these feel slightly tighter in the toe box but not enough to return. Otherwise, they feel great.

First time ordering Asics and was pleasantly surprised! This sneaker is perfect for the gym or for everyday use

Love Zappos, their products and customer service. I have always worn Asics but this pair was particularly small. Compared to my old Asics and the length distance was shorter. Will replace with half size larger.

The shoes felt wide and not supported around the foot. I like the look of the shoes. I wanted them for Jazzercise and didn't feel they were enough support.
