Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: The most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I am 5'10" 190lbs and I run a lot in the military and in 18 years have seen the evolution of shoes and this is a great shoe that has a good fit and is outstanding for the flat feet I have developed thanks to Uncle Sam. My feet feel great after PT runs and there is less wear-and-tear on my feet and lower legs and they make running easier thanks to the technology in them that really works for me. Ordered a half size up and they fit well with medium weight socks and lightweight socks when laced tighter. Great shoe and with RRS return policy take the chance on them if you want a shoe that will work with you and your low arches/flat feet and also provide great cushioning, support and control. I did and I'm very satisfied now.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: The comfort of this shoe supersedes any other complaint anyone would have. For all the cushioning it has i believe it is an extremely light shoe. If your a big guy in stature this is the shoe for you. The support is un believable. The best way to describe it is like running with pillows tighed to your feet.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: I've had PF for the past year, so I need as much support as possible. These shoes are really comfortable and provide support that I need. I'd rate the Evolution 6 as my #1 running shoe, followed by Nike's Equalon. If you have PF or arch support issues, I'd highly recommend these shoes.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: I'm a police academy cadet. I am 5'9" and 265 lbs. I have low arches. I run anywhere from 5-15 miles a week. I run on the inside of my feet and need the extra arch support and cushioning. These shoes work great for me. I run primarily on hard surfaces. When I occasionally do trail runs, these shoes do the job but I believe there is a more proper shoe for that application. On concrete though, these shoes are great. Did I mention that they are light?

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Excellent motion control shoe. At 6' 245lbs, I am a large runner and a relative newcomer. This shoe is great at providing the right amount of control, support,cushioning, and weight as compared to the New Balance and Saucony shoes that I have tried. I will definitely be getting at least one more pair of these shoes.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: These shoes really work out great for me. I do have to buy them in a wider size; don't have huge feet but the toes area felt tight. I do put my own inserts in and that works out fine. I am a higher mileage runner, somewhat flat feet and over pronate.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: These are the best running shoes I've owned. I'm in the military, so running is not an options. I've had various knee and foot injuries and over-pronate VERY badly. I had a physical therapist watch my stride once and she recommended these and I've been sold after that. While it didn't eliminate my pain, it did minimize it to where I enjoy running whereas I used to dread it.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Bought Brooks Beast on a recommendation from a friend, but they never felt right, out of the box or after a 4 day break-in. Sent them back and got these Evolutions and couldn't be happier. I'm an amateur runner, 6'00", 260lbs with flat arches. Against much advice, I ran my first ever 5K in these Evolutions, right out of the box with no break-in. They felt amazing. Lightweight, stablility control, cushion, and maximum comfort throught the race. I will probably never own a different brand than Asics!

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Unfortunately these shoes are significantly inferior to their counterparts by New Balance and Brooks. They are not as supportive and feel too narrow in the midfoot. The forefoot is fine as is the width. They are only a bit supperior to Gel Foundation. Stick to New Balance or Brooks if you need excellent motion control.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: I am 6 ft./ 190 lbs. and log about 20 miles/week. I bought my Evolutions after reading several RRS reviews that touted the supurb cushioning of this shoe. However, after just a few 4-5 mile runs, I am disappointed. It's a decent shoe for the money (w/VIP discount), but I was expecting a lot more substance. The cushioning in these shoes feels "thin" - not "pillowy soft" and supportive as some have described their runs in them. It always bites when you have to go through that eventual search for a new shoe after the "extinction" of your favorite model and you've exhausted the back-up supply you had stashed in your closet.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Great shoe for BIG guys, not BIG runners, but BIG in general. I'm 6'3" and 360lbs. I ran in the Adrenalines for about 6 weeks and they wore down way too fast. I tried the Asics 2170 and just not enough shoe, too soft, not enough support on the outer edge... I ran in these and loved them! Just enough cushioning and all of the support. It did take a few runs for them to break in, but worth it! Finished my first 5K last weekend and plan to keep running 5k and move up to 10K sometime this fall! FYI they are wider than the other asics shoes i've tried on. Wider than the 2170 and the Kayano.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: 6'0" 200 lbs and I've been running in Asics Gel Evolutions since version 2. This latest update looks great and is perhaps the most comfortable of any of its predecessors, however, they do not feel fast and are extremely heavy (very clunky feeling, similar to the Brooks Beast.) Overall am extremely disappointed and will need to find an alternative until Asics comes out with its next update (hopefully soon).

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Being a health professional, I have known the importance of proper footwear for a while. But it was only recently that I had another gait(walking) analysis and Ihad been i nthe completely wrong type of shoe for years. These make my feet feel so much better, both in walking and running on all surfaces. I highly recommend them.

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: This is the best running shoe I've used for years. They are comfortable, and provides great cushioning. They do seem to wear out a little faster than expected. However I'm a 50+ runner who's a little heavier than most runners which is probably a factor in the durability

Comments about Mens ASICS GEL-Evolution 6 Running Shoe: Asics has widened this shoe somewhat. It was always too narrow even in a 4E. This one fits me fine. I would say that the fit is simular to the Brooks Beast. The control is fine and the cushion is perfect. As far as my needs go this is the perfect shoe. It is listed at 13.3 oz. and it
