very pleased with these... Feb 11, 2010
By Mr. Paul E. Boulet Shoes fit well right out of the box. One of the lightest weight cross training shoes I've every owned. The cushioned bounce from the gel heel is a very welcome addition to my 50+ year old achilles. I've never had a gel heel shoe before but compared to traditional cross training shoes these blow others outta the gym. I've run a few miles in them and enjoy them even more than my running shoes. My regular use of these is weight training, cardio training at a gym

Most comfortable running shoe ever! Sep 28, 2010
By Michael J. Mccullough
"Go Army"
1st this shoe was reviewed by Consumer Reports as the best Cross Trainer the GEL 150 TR; this shoe was replaced by GEL 160 TR. I ran 3 miles in this and it was comfortable to the end with very little problem for my feet or knees. I recommend it highly!

Not as comfortable as New Balance Mar 07, 2010
By James W. Pullaro Purchased at Amazon. Good value for the money. Runs a little narrow even in the wide.

Durable, Comfortable Cross Trainer Aug 13, 2010
By Bruce Rhodes I wear Asics for everything--Fortitude running shoes and Blackheath cleats. Asics is the only shoe I've found so far that has helped eliminate Achilles and knee pain.
I use the 160Tr for weight lifting and twice a week when I work with a trainer doing leg exercises that include speed and agility training. I'm on my second pair (third if you include the 150 Trs I had first). These shoes hold up really well. They are leather (synthetic?) so they're a bit heavier than a running shoe but not nearly as heavy as many other cross trainers. I find them very comfortable.
I've had trouble with most other brands causing foot pain, but never with an Asics.

Great shoe ... order half size larger Nov 08, 2010

Great shoe. Good support. Consider ordering a half size larger. I wear a 10 1/2 to 11 and the size 11 is snug.
