Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Resolution X

I wanted to like this shoe as I've worn the Resolution for a few years now and have been very satisfied with the fit, comfort and performance. Sadly, that is no longer the case. The changes from the Resolution 9 have made this shoe completely unwearable. It's gotten even heavier, up to 2 ounces heavier depending on size of shoe. They've added for rubber and filler as well as this huge "cuff" on the medial side which rubs your ankle and is very discomforting and serves no purpose. The toebox seems to be affected by the additional rubber, so it's cut the internal room in the shoe, especially the toebox, down slightly. I put a slightly thicker orthotic in compared to the stock insert and now it causes my toes to rub and blister. I can't imagine this won't affect more people as the Resolution was already on the narrow side for many people. And, with the addition of the outside plate, the shoe itself has overall lost comfort. Sadly I'm on the search for a new shoe brand or maybe some older models left in stock.

Takes a little getting used to with the higher interior ankle support, but does give you better support. Feels a little heavy at first, but a really good shoe! Hope they get more colors

I have been wearing this shoe for the past 5 years. I'm so sad I can no longer wear it. Changes from the last version: - The outside now has a plastic semi-flexible plate going right over the outside ball of your foot. It hits right on that bone, so if that area ever bothers you in another shoe, you'll feel it here. Didn't have that issue on the others. - In size 13, it's 2oz heavier going from 16oz to 18oz in each shoe. - It appears the added weight is from more upper rubber and more filled in (less breathable), and also the added cuff on the medial side. - The upper seems to have more material (cover more area) so the toebox has more volume. However with the addition of the outside plate, it felt more constrictive and uncomfortable.

A significant downgrade from the Gel Resolution 9. Shoes are bulkier and heavier than the previous version. No ability to use a runners knot effectively. Not sure what ASICS was thinking with this design. Im going to try to return these shoes.

THE Best Tennis Shoe that I have ever owned. It has plenty of room in the midsole and toe box. The shoe has great stability on the court and comfort that lasts all day. I normally wear a size 11 in the K-Swiss Hypercourt and I took the advice of the reviewers and dropped down a half size for a perfect fit.
