Evolving the archive without disrupting its classic makeup is the gel-lyte evo, which utilizes the iconic gel-lyte iii silhouette to refine the legacy runner with a modern and sleek design. Included upon its renovation is the new 4-piece tooling and dual-density midsole, which are overlaid with lightweight materials that actually enhance breathability and support for dynamic movements. In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

Perfect Casual Shoe
These are very comfortable! One thing to note is the tongue is different than usual shoes. Instead of a single center like usual shoes this one comes with two side flaps that overlap. I was caught off guard but it works and these are super comfortable so I can easily live with it. I've been wearing these as my casual shoes and they hold up very well. Arch support is great as well. I've gotten a few compliments as well. The only issue I have is there is some slight yellowing after washing them a few times.

Really liked these shoes at first
Really liked these shoes at first, seemed really comfortable and fit well, but after only a few months of casual wear the sole started coming off and are now unwearable. Which stinks that I can't return still. I feel I am out $90 now

Great fit. It felt a bit harder and uncomfortable when I first tried it on but as i wore it it began to feel more and comfortable. It contoured nicely to my foot and I didn't want to take them off.I am quite pleased with the design and look. My wife seems to love them more than me.Awesome pair of shoes. They are now my favorite!

Great shoe, Asics is my go to brand for the best shoes... Unfortunately this model is too narrow for the split tongue on this shoe, you can see the split. It's a great idea, but maybe I need to break them in, I'll try it in different color. Don't want to use these for work anyway

I was disappointed in this shoe due to its short lifespan
I was disappointed in this shoe due to its short lifespan, or rather, durability. My fiancé works in retail and needs a comfortable supporting shoe. These Asics seemed to as if they could fulfill those needs. Well they did meet those expectations, but the shoe was falling apart in less than a month. Very disappointing. Will not re-order.

Not comfortable for me
I cannot believe they call this a running shoe. This shoe is uncomfortable wearing it for 2 minutes inside the house. No arch support at all and no "buffer" for running either. I have returned.

Nice Shoes, don't stay pretty very long.
These shoes have a great aesthetic, and are comfortable for day to day wear.... but don't expect that white rubber or red crosshatch to stay clean or vibrant. But hey, what did you expect for $40?
