Men's ASICS GEL-Scout

Comments about Mens ASICS Gel-Scout Trail Running Shoe:

Feels soft and flexible with very good arch support. I didn't feel any pain from rocks but the shoe is still flexible enough to enable my feet to get a good grip on difficult terrain. Considering how flexible it felt, it was still very stable on uneven surfaces. I just purchased these, so I have no comment as to durability. Blue and orange is a great color combination. I use them on singletracks, and very steep, rocky paths- they are great over rocks.

First use was the day after I received them and ran the Greenland Trail race. Comfortable and no break-in required and I had a fantastic race. On the technical trails I normally run, the shoes have had great traction and they have performed well in all weather (snow, rain, & heat). I typically run 30 miles a week on trails which can be hard on shoes, so I will wait to provide feedback on how well they hold up over time.

Great shoe but Try them before buying. I usually wear a 12.5 in asics and these were too big. Have to exchange them for a 12.

So far this product has been great. I only have bought 30 miles on them and yave been running all kinds of terrain and they have more then held there own for me. Hope they live up to the past experience that I habe had with this brand.

Got these to replace an old pair of NB's. These are by far the best trail shoes I've had. I even got compliments on the color.

This is my first pair of trail shoes, and I absolutely love them! I also have Asics Gel Cumulus road shoes and the Gel Scouts fit exactly the same. Not too heavy but they provide great traction in all conditions, mud, snow, hard pack, etc. If you don't own a pair of these, you are missing out!

Purchased these shoes for my high mile runs anything from 10-22 miles and was pleased by their fit and feel on the trail. Unfortunately with about 150 miles on the shoes they are starting to fall apart. The uppers are ripped, the rubber toe guard is coming unglued and the lugs are also coming unglued. I typically run rocky somewhat technical terrain in San Diego, CA. I am a diehard Asics fan and expect much more out of their shoes. I have since returned the shoes and I'm now running in the Mizuno Trail Ascend 7.

I needed a trail runner that had a full rock protection plate for rocky trails, and this one fit the bill. The shoe is comfortable and has a good aggressive sole. These shoes only come in gaudy colors with shiny plastic trim, which may be great for kids, but hey Asics, how about giving us more color choices in this shoe? I also still can't figure out why so many shoe makers insist on making pointed shoes that are not in the shape of a human foot, but that's another story. Anyway, I'm sure they will look fine once they get covered with dirt and mud. Regardless, I like the feel and function of these shoes.

Training for my first 50K so I was looking for a high mileage trail shoe and the Gel scout seemed a perfect fit. The shoes felt great right out of the box on a 8 mile trail run. I've since put close to 100 miles on them with a 16 miler as my longest. They are very flexible with great trail feel. The lug patter offers outstanding traction on the trail, but it is wearing much faster than I would have expected. I have run almost exclusively on trails with them so the wear was a bit surprising. Overall I am very pleased and would strongly recommend these shoes for those looking outside the minimal shoe realm.

Found the Asics Scout very cushioned as a forefoot runner. Light and flexible.
