Fits true to size, very light, and responsive yet just enough support. Perfect for speed workouts and short distance races.

I have run in this style of Asics for years! They still offer great support and they are lightweight. The consistency across the many versions-(25!) of Gel-DS Trainers is impressive! It's the one shoe I can order online with confidence!

I love this sneaker. It does run a little small I recommend sizing up a half size.

Very comfortable, true to size. Can be worn casually and also feel really good running. I've run about 3-4 mi per run in these.

It is light and responsive. Offers great support but not sure how it would do on long runs (>15 miles). Fits like a glove (I have narrow/normal feet). Love the knit upper. And did I mention how light it is????? Love it!

This is the second pair of these shoes that I purchased because I loved my first pair so much! I have a flatter, narrower foot and these shoes feel great for both cross training and running.

I've been wearing the GEL-DS Trainer Series for a number of years and they continue to be a great shoe. They are lightweight and good looking. I run between 4 to 15 miles at a time and my feet don't drag, throb, rub, or do any of the things that can occur when I've tried switching to non-Asics shoes in the past.

I bought a second pair of these. I'm typically a size 8.5 and these are true to fit. I trained for a half marathon in these and they were perfect. I also ran the race in them. Light. Slimmer profile shoe. Not clunky like some others out there.

These are great shoes and that is saying a lot because I'm picky about shoes since I wear orthopedic shoes. I Red up on the shoes and heard that they were good for people whose feet pronate. These shoes are so great I don't even wear my orthotics with them. Love it.

Very light, but still feel good support while I run. I also love the way they look, they make my foot look smaller. I love them so much I will be buying more of the same exact ones so that I have my replacements ready, I hate looking for my next pair after they get worn out! Sometimes the newer model is nothing like the ones you have and I end up hating them. Would definately recommend.

Great shoes! Wore nothing other than Asics Duomax for the longest time and was super bummed when they were no longer being manufactured. However, these sneakers are a game changer! They are light, feel great, and kept my run fast and fantastic! Will BUY AGAIN!

I'm an avid runner who's run for 25+ years. Over the past 6 years, I've gone through 11 pair of Noosa Tri-9. I hadn't been able to find them and tried the Noosa Tri-11. They were not at all good for longer runs. I decided to try the DS Trainer, a shoe I wore about 20 years ago and was pleasantly surprised to find they worked great even for long runs. They are one of the best lightweight stability shoes I've worn. I highly recommend these for any distance. I will definitely purchase another pair when these are worn out. I added elastic laces which I would never go without.

I have been wearing DS trainers for over 12 years. They have been and remain to be my favorite and only running shoe. I have run various 5ks through trained for 2 marathons in various versions of the shoe and continue to love the quality product produced by ASIC. Due to a recent struggle with plantar fasciitis I wear a superfeet insole. However, I continue to wear a size 10.5 which is what I wore previous to using a superfeet insole. I find that sizing up allows for foot swelling that comes from logging miles and I do not experience any sort of hotspot rubs or blisters - I wear an 8 or 8.5 in a dress shoe.

Although I used to wear Asics tennis shoes quite frequently, since having a baby, my feet have become wider and I have had to wear New Balance brand because a lot of their styles come in a wider width. I like the style of these and decided to give them a try and I'm glad I did. I've been working out in them and running in them and no foot pain at all. Pretty good arch support and they fit true to size as far as I can tell. Definitely recommend them and I plan on ordering another pair.

Very lightweight, comfortable, and flexible. I over pronate, and this shoe helps correct that. It also has great traction for outdoor running.

I am new to running & had no idea that the shoe you were wearing could make such a difference. I was getting injured in my old sneakers. Anyway I usually wear wide but these shoes fit perfect at 1/2 size up for running. Let me tell u they changed my workout game & running technique. I'm so happy w/ my first pair is asics ever!! My running form also improved.
