Running Shoe ASICS Women's GEL
From the Manufacturer
   In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

Product Description
   The ASICS® Gel Kayano 16 women's running shoe is packed with performance technology; it features an Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.®), which enhances the foot's natural gait to ensure smooth, efficient turnover. The Discrete Heel Unit attenuates shock on impact, while a ComforDry™ sockliner provides additional cushioning and moisture management.

   These shoes have helped get me back on the road to recovery, in fact I ran 10 minutes without stopping yesterday at a pretty good clip....I'm still walking.Great running shoe! Fit the first time I put them on my feet. What I forgot when I ordered this pair was that Asics DO RUN SMALL! Order 1 size up. Otherwise, I love the Asics shoes.Asics range from $50-$130 depending on where you find them and how good of a deal the place you are at is having. You can find Asics on Amazon for a pretty good deal. This is a well-built, neutral shoe that's a safe buy for anyone who doesn't have very specific shoe needs.
