Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Craze TR 4

From the first wear they are comfortable - I wear them for cardio and weight training at the gym and they feel pretty good - padding and support are important and those are both good.

Gel Craze are great for cardio classes - I don't even need orthotics with these. Only thing is I feel that the last version was better padded. The tongue especially could be thicker and more comfortable.

Had I never tried Gel-Craze TR 3, I would say these are the best training shoes I've ever worn. I am a fitness instructor and use these shoes daily in my Zumba and strength training classes. The overall performance of the shoe is very good. Flexible and light, yet provides the absolute best shock absorption and impact support than any other shoe I've tried. I get pain in my Achilles and plantar fasciitis and these shoes essentially take that pain away. However, I do have to replace the insoles with something that has better shock absorption, in order to get the most out of these shoes. I don't feel that they last as long as the TR 3. They are not as sturdy, definitely. They feel a little loose in the heel. And the support isn't as good, also. Whatever you guys did to change this shoe, CHANGE IT BACK, PLEASE! The TR 3 was far superior; it was the best shoe I've ever tried. And the TR 4 just doesn't do as well. I probably can get 5 months out of this shoe before I need to replace it. As far as sizing goes: this shoe fits true to size. However, if you plan on replacing the insole with something high volume, I would go up 1/2 a size. Other than its inability to measure up to the previous model, this shoe is undefeated in performance quality. I have high arches, supination, issues with Achilles pain/plantar f, and a need for high impact support. If this sounds like you, it's worry trying this shoe out.

I really like them but not as comfortable as the other ASICS I have previously bought.

I love that I have stability with side to side movements like skater jumps and side to side squats. Only improvement would be a little more cushion.

I bought these trainers for general use in the gym and attending classes. I like the look and design of the trainer and also the colouring. The only slight concern was the size - I'm normally a size 6 but in trainers I take a bigger size but their could be a better sizing chart on the website because I bought a size 7.5 but could of done with a size 8

I bought these to replace my old Zumba shoes which were gel cumulus. Not sure which ones I like better. The gels were better arch support and jumping support because of the gel. For sure more springy. But the new ones are much lighter and great for fast moving feet. I do miss the arch support and a bit of a Spring but love the lower profile of these shoes. Whisked they could combine all the best qualities. I love asics. They last about a year and a half of 5-6 workouts per week. My toes poked holes in the tops of my last ones!!! Oh, Order a half size up!!!! I always do or my toes are too crowed in toe box.

I have worn your shoes for many years in the same size and have always had good luck with them. This particular style seems to have a narrower toebox than prior pairs, and I am still trying to determine if there will be some stretch or if it will be a problem. I also don't feel the arch support is the same. I like the materials and style otherwise and hope that additional wear will prove helpful comfortwise.

Shoes are comfortable, but after a week of wearing them to workout the tips started to year off (the very comfortable foam sole isn't very sturdy) and they get scuffed up really easily. That being said, they are super comfortable anf fit really well.

I have a pair of Asics running shoes which I absolutely love and wear all the time. I wanted to try a training shoe since I do a lot of HIIT and various other kinds of workouts. I'm not in love with this pair yet. They aren't as comfortable as I would like and don't offer much support. I actually kicked them off in the middle of a workout because my right foot started to hurt (in the arch). I'm going to give it a bit more time. Maybe they just aren't broken in enough yet.
