Light enough, solid performance, and super comfortable
By Andy
I have been a big fan of Asics running shoes since I ran cross country in high school. Although I didn't run quite as regularly after I graduated, I still maintained some semblance of a running schedule - always using Asics as my footwear of choice.Picking a quality running shoe is not as simple as finding the cheapest pair that fits. There are a lot of aspects of the choice to consider - the shape of your foot, the way your foot strikes the pavement, the angle of your stride - it's seemingly endless. I picked up these shoes after a recommendation from my local running shoe store - many running-focused stores will give you a full diagnostics run-down of your running patterns, using cameras to record your strides in order to analyze your footfalls.The Gel Oracle is a fairly neutral, stable shoe. It has some nice arch support and the shoe cups your heel nicely. I've only put a few dozen miles on them so far, but with most shoes, there is a steep adjustment curve. Not so with these - they have been comfortable since day one! I recommend them if you're looking for a shoe with a lot of support while still maintaining a fairly neutral stride.

Nothing beats a professional fitting
By Beware the candy
I'd never had an experience buying shoes like the one where I had myself fitted by a professional that put me in to the ASICS Gel Nimbus 13s. I'd never put on a shoe before that felt that perfect. The problem arose when those shoes wore out and I needed to replace them, only to find they were no longer available (and I searched the internet over). So I began researching on the ASICS site to find the closest replacement I could. If anything, my GN-13s had worn out perhaps a little faster than I expected and so I opted for a more structured shoe to fit my landing pattern. I like these shoes thus far, although I've only done a few mild workouts in them. But they don't have that perfect fit I had with the GN-13s. Just hope the shins hold up when I really start working these out.

Great comfortable shoes
By Wayne Brown
Quick Note: I did notice that his shoe will increase your height by 1 to 1-1/2 inches, which is great if you are 5'5 like me.
