text: I'm really disappointed in these shoes. I am a long distance runner completing half and full marathons yearly. I wear Asics pretty religiously and always wear a 10. This is the first time that a pair of Asics has not fit properly and has not lived up to their reputation. They really cut corners on this shoe and I expected a lot more especially for the price. Unfortunately I've tried to get them to work; worn them for a few runs (generating many blisters on my feet) and most likely cannot return them now. I can't believe how cheap this shoe is; there's not enough cloth on the tongue to cover my socks. My feet are not wide and I can still see my socks even when fully laced up! I'm bummed I wasted $80 on a pair of shoes that I could have bought elsewhere (REI, Road Runner, Fleet Feet) and returned after wearing.
