ASICS Kid's GT-1000 4 Grade School Running Shoes

A couple of months ago, I discovered the beauty of Asics sneakers. I'm really into running, and needed to head off a little plantar fasciitis that has just appeared on the radar. Asics were highly recommended by a nice, clearly knowledgeable kid on YouTube, so I took out a pair of semi-abandoned Gel Noosa Tri-8s from last Fall, which I had cast aside in disgust since I was in the throws of shin splint Hell at the time, and they did not cure me! Well, those suddenly felt pretty good -- so much so that I didn't want to take them off! Then, my curiosity/greed/excitement grew, and I began purchasing on Amazon. ( I buy kids' sizes, so I figure 2 for 1, or something along those lines!) Anyway, first a beautiful, pink pair of GT-1000 2s -- awesome!!! Next, Gel Noosa Tri 9s -- OMG, just about as awesome! Can't decide which I like better -- probably the GT-1000s, by a hair. Then, the Gel-Nimbus 15 -- for me, not a winner compared to the other two -- heavier, and don't have the "heel-and-arch-ache-begone magic" quite so much, although I'm prepared to give them some more time! Finally, these little sweeties. Basically a different color of my most favorites so far. I love them so much, am wearing them as I type, and sometimes really struggle with not wanting to take them off at bedtime! Seriously. I am so hard-core about Asics now, and can't imagine life without them! Totally recommend! PS I am also hoping that they have been helping ward off those miserable shin splints I tend to get just about every time I ramp it up in the good weather.

I am an adult usually wearing adult size 5.5 or EU 36. Sometimes I buy Big Kid size 4. And I have wide feet and always shop for wide shoes, so I don't have too much choice. I bought these for jogging, not for regular wear. I jog once or twice a week for 60-80 min. I've already had several runs in them. They feel comfortable both in length and in width, so I think I could wear them all day. The feel under the arch is a little bit different than in my previous Asics Gel Kayano, not uncomfortable though, just different. I guess it's either because these are new and the gel is fresh and not compressed/worn out, or because these are designed specifically for people with normal pronation AND with some over-pronation (you can check this feature on Asics website). I have some over-pronation.As far as I understand they don't have as much gel as Gel-Sohoma or some other Asics, but if you're not a really active runner and don't have issues with your knees, they are still wery good. Especially for the price (they were only 35$, which is cheap for Asics).The color is a little bit too pinky with green laces:) But who cares, if it's for running. For regular wear consider if you have matching clothes:)

I purchased 3 different pairs of sneakers for my 7 year old to try on, as store trips are nearly impossible. Two were Asics and one was Adidas. These were my sons favorite of the three, hands down. He was so excited when he put these on and started running circles in the house. He said they were the most cushiony and comfortable shoes he's ever worn. Two months later and he loves them just as much as the first day and they've held up to his rough play. I like that the black pair hides the dirt. My son jumped into a lake with them the first week he got them and the smell and dirt washed out well. I did order these 1 size up as 1/2 size would have fit him for the moment, but a full size gives him time to grow into them instead of outgrowing them in a few months.

This is the second set that we purchased for our son (needed a replacement and larger size as he grew). The first we purchased locally at a sport specific store. But they are about $10 cheaper on Amazon; and with free shipping it was a no brainer on where to purchase them.Our son runs about 3 miles every Wednesday before school and then a mile during PE on Wed and Thursday. These were recommended by his orthopedic Dr. to help his feet. Our son likes them. They seemed to last pretty long for running shoes. We got the first pair late last school year so they didn't have a lot of miles on them. We'll see how these do since he'll have them at the start. So far I think he's got 5.5 miles on them.

Great shoe for my 6 1/2 year old, kindergarten son. Purchased a size 2.5 "little kid". I think they fit a teeny bit large compared to other brands, but I feared a size 2 little kid would not have given him enough adequate growing room to be worth the purchase (spent a little more than we would have liked). I think the toe box area has a lot of room, so I think this shoe would fit kids who might have a slightly wider foot, but maybe don't need a full-out "wide width" shoe. We are very pleased with our decision thus far. We have had them one week.

I was looking for a running sneaker with stability. These are comfortable for me. I have a small foot and need to wear kids' sizes and am in search of a decent running shoe. I've been training in these for a few weeks and am up to 11 miles. Had some foot pain but I'm not sure if it's the sneaker or foot injury. I recommend these for shorter distances and I'm sure they are great for kids.

Got these for my son (a runner). Ordered a half size bigger than his other asics, a 4.5, which should have fit perfectly. It was a little snug. Went up another half size for the perfect fit at size 5 . Have recently purchased a few other shows for him and a 4.5 had been spot on, so I conclude these are just a bit small. In a positive note, the return/exchange process was incredibly easy and fast!

These wide width shoes are great for my son with Fred Flintstone feet. Fit better for his thick (in height) feet. Only consideration is that his feet are so thick, he needs longer shoelaces than they come with to be able to tie easily. But these fit better than any other shoe we found at department or superstores. He wore the next size smaller ones until he grew into the next size - he used to go through at least 3 before moving to the next size. I automatically came back to this seller for the next size larger.

Le produit livré est de qualité certes. mais la pointure choisit et soi disant en stock n'est pas au RDV

These shoes came and boy are they bright! The colour "glow pink" is certainly true.They fit as expected; if you purchase them remember that kids sizing is different than ladies shoe sizes. These have the arch support and Duomax technology that I love in Asics shoes. Both my daughter and I have a pair of these and love them.

Fit to true size, I like the color and fit perfectly!

I love Asics ??? Why i have gave 2 stars is when i got them there was black ink all over the insides of the soles. I try to wash it off but it wouldn,t budge . I am very very disappointed that someone would send you out the trainers in that shape ...."Not acceptable" for a new pair of trainers so it was a hole hassle now to send them back to get another pair .Go for a half a size or 1 size bigger they are small fitting am glad i read the other reviews about the sizes. Other than the ink marks i love the trainers .....

Good trainers for the lad who has flat feet and suffers pain. These are like having hospital fitted arches but way cooler.
