These shoes are not worth a hundred dollars you need a new pair every three months. They wore out fast and became hard as rock after they only got a little damp!

175 pounds/flat narrow feet, heel striker. I switched from Asics 2080's to this shoe. They feel heavy and stiff and wear faster then the 2080's. I was experiencing shin and ankle pain after several pairs of 2080's. The first pair of EVO3's seem to take care of my shin pain however they wore out f...

I love everything about this shoe. It is a little heavy but what motion control shoe that really works isn't. The only other shoes that I have run in that compare are the Brooks Beast and the previous Gel Evolution, but this one has both of those beat. Now this one is apparently endangered becaus...

With socks, this is a remarkably comfortable running shoe for a heavy (220lbs.) runner. Good support and motion control. No knee injuries. For non-sock running purposes, like in triathlons, however, this is a really bad shoe. One sockless 10k run resulted in the worst blisters and abrasions I h...

I am in the miltary and I am just getting over a climbing injury (achilles tendons). My boss turned me on to this shoe. Though it was a bit heavy at first, my leg musclular strength endurance increased dramatically. I increased my 2 mile run time by almost two minutes. The wide toe room took a b...

i have enjoyed these shoes. I prefer training shoes that a little lighter. It has held up and reasonable comfortable. I am considering buying another pair.

I am a new runner, and made the same mistake many have by purchasing some Nike Shox to run in. After 70 or so miles, these shoes were wore out and I had multiple aches and pains. I visited Lukes Locker in Dallas who specialize in running shoes. They suggested either this pair or the Brooks Beast. I ...

I've gone through a hundred motion control shoes over the years. I've tried NB, Saucony, ASICS. A few years ago I switched from NB to ASICS and haven't looked back. Yesterday, right out of the box, I ran in these. They are so light it's amazing. Usually a motion control shoe is like strapping a bric...

all i feel is heavy, hard rock insole, slight improve wit the design, less durable 2 run on the road, last only 2 month, 2 expensive , make it cheaper next time n cushionless as usual

The shoe works ok.but feels harder than the 2 and more controlling on heel strike. Asics needs to soften the solyte feel, which I understand will occur with the 4th version due ouit in august of 2008. In the meantime, I'll run in my equalons.

Sun, October 21,2007:
I have a totally flat foot and very wide with a narrow heel. The 4E width is perfect for my foot and my heel doesn't slip, although I have to tie them pretty tight. I tried the New Balance 1010 and it was horrible for my feet. A lot of times they put an arch in these types of motion control shoes wh...

Smoothest running mc shoe out there now, with the possible exception of the alchemy. Low heel,flexibility, fit are all there-but the shoe is too firm/jarring for the long haul for bigger runners. Can't wait for the solyte reformulation.

love these shoes. i have flat feet and they give me lots of support. i'm surprised these are motion control shoe because they're very light. the inside is seamless so it makes the shoe very comfortable.

These shoes grow on you. They are firm and have a lower heel.For a Motion Control shoe for bigger runners they are very light. I start off each run in them feeling they are too firm or need more cushion but end up very happy with the run and the shoes!!!. I hear from thr Runners World Forum that A...

Comfortable,wide shoe for us flat feet folk. It is,however,a little heavier than the Evolution 2.

I am 6 foot 1 about 200 pounds with flat feet, and altough slightly better than the horrible Evolution II, this shoe just does not have enough cushioning. Bring back the original Evolution with Speva! Solyte just doesn't cut it. After my first run with these shoes, I ended up with an injury. Why...

Thu, June 14,2007:
Without extra insoles the cushioning feels a bit too firm for my liking (more so than the evolution 2's). With the insoles it adds just the right amount of cush without sacrificing on the MC characteristic of the shoe. The insoles actually increase the effectiveness of the MC and stability of the sh...

The cushioning feels firm and responsive (moreso than the Evo 2), plenty of stability while definatly having a fast feel for an MC shoe. Great update!
