Men's Asics GEL-1170

I'm a 6'1 at 195lb competitive neutral runner who needs exceptional cushioning and this sneaker absolutely has it! I have a bad hip flexor, and had recently run in a pair of Brooks, but felt the hip jarring on the hills. I took the Asics Gel 1170 on an 18 mile run today and not an ounce of pain. These sneaks are awesome! If you're a bigger runner, or just love running on pillows...get them!

Best shoe ever! I have tried so many brands, neutral to stability. This shoe has perfect support and cushioning. Finally found my shoe! Thanks Asics.

I have bought other brands of running shoes prior to purchasing these Asics Gel-1170 and have been content, but I have wide feet and it was hard to find shoes that just felt perfect. I began training for boxing competition and would be running a lot more, 4 day a week at 4-6 miles each run. So I needed a dependable, comfortable and durable running shoe. After considering the Ghost 4 (too expensive) and the Adidas Sonic 2 (not enough cushion, although they were next pick). My first run with the 1170's felt like I had pillows on my feet. The gel support is amazing. They also are duomax which means they give arch support for people with flatter feet. I must admit that I wear these when I am not running sometimes just because they are so comfortable. I love the color scheme and the net exterior looks cool. I really have no complaints or criticism about this shoe. Glad I finally found a perfect shoe for my gremlin feet :)
