this shoe is great -
ran so far 150 miles in these in the past 3 weeks and i must say that my feet feel awsome and they are very light which is a total plus.

I wanted to add a review for this shoe as a runner who is a little bigger than other reviewers. At 6'3" 175lbs this shoe still provides plenty of cushioning and support for tempo runs and races. I have raced distances up to a half marathon in it and it is an excellent shoe.

I'm 5 foot 8, about 105 lbs and run a good amount (60-70/week). I moved from these from the Empire 2 and I am sure I made the right choice. I use them for everyday training, and they've held up great. Good support, though I moved over my SuperFeet Green from my previous trainers. Only sizing note wo...

still does not match the feel of the "old" ds trainer-hard outer sole on heel makes this a stiff and noisy addition for asic. they cant leave well enough alone. try the saucony tangent.

The shoe fits like none I have tried before. I'm 6' 155Lb so I don't necessarily require a lot of cushion. The feature I like best about this shoe is the lacing style. This shoe really hugs my foot instead of how most shoes will constrict. I'd recommend buying this shoe if you do some road races.....

Great Shoe! Light, flexible, responsive, with good cushioning and a touch of stability. I normally don't write reviews, but these guys are well worth the time and deserving of the praise. I'm on my second pair - took them out of the box new this morning for 12 miles. Super comfy...

I just started "breaking in" the 13's for a fall marathon last week and found that there is not much breaking in to do. These shoes feel great right out of the box. They are definitely more flexible in the midsole and the forefoot has just the right amount of padding. I would have liked to have give...

This is a vast improvement upon the ds-trainer 12. Where the 12's were hard and somewhat clunky the 13's are smooth with just the right amount of cushioning. Feels like the new lacing system makes for a snugger fit which I appreciate since I have narrower feet. Great shoe for tempo or all around ...

I concur with all who have said size up a full size from your street shoe size (9.5 to 10.5). This shoe runs a bit short in length. I replaced the thin insole with a RRS Cush Runner3 insole and now it is the right combo of light stability and forefoot cushion. I run 50+ miles per week and use these...

After 210 miles there is no heel left on these shoes. They were great through that distance, but are now totally trashed.

This shoe has a very secure fit and locks the heel down well if you use the extra eyelet. It also has smoother transitions, and better cushioning than the DS 12 or any other asics shoe I've tried. I ran a great tempo in them strait out of the box.

Great update of a legendary shoe. The new so-lyte isn't as stiff and clunky as the previous model and the shoe provides a smooth transition through the foot strike.
Excellent shoe if you're looking for a light and fast trainer with the stability for longer runs as well.

Been running since 14 yrs old, 50 yrs old now. Sales person talked me into ASICS, former Adidas fan. Glad he did, bought it wide fit, I wear orthodic arch. Not the lightest shoe, am rating it on support, cushion, and how my joints, legs feel after running on concrete and ashalt. (4-5mi runs) can...

I have always enjoyed running in the DS Trainer line up (DS X was a good shoe), but was very disappointed with the DS XIII. I would no longer call this a performance trainer. The shoe is bulky, wide, soft and does not ride like a performance shoe (I am tall, but have a small frame so I like less s...

Phenomenal shoe. Best stability performance trainer I have used in years. Buy a full size larger; I wear an 11 in the Kayano, Nimbus and 2130 and needed a 12 in the DS Trainer.

Excellent update (and recovery from the DS-12) for the DS line. But order ONE FULL SIZE up. The RR print catalogs show a full size up for this shoe, though the website does not show this as 06/02/08.
I really dig the lacing system as it fits the natural architecture of the foot in a very intuitive ...

I feel let down. I bought this because I trusted the DS trainer but the wierd lacing system causes so much irritation when I flex the shoe that it is unwearable. I don't know who's good idea that was but i have a nice red stain on mine due to the pint of blood I lost during my run. Why o why did you...

Like any DS Trainer, this is a great shoe. But BEWARE...order a full size larger. I have been a DS wearer since version 6 and have always ordered 1/2 size up. version 13 needs a full 1 size.
