About the Asics Women's GEL-KINSEI MAX Running Shoes
The GEL-KINSEI™ MAX trainer takes the experience of running on clouds to the next level. It's been redesigned for runners who want every step to feel like it's oozing with softness. The tooling is modified with our FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning for the midsole's top layer. This helps provide cloud-like comfort while creating an energized feel at toe-off. A TPU midsole plate is positioned in the center of the midsole to provide a more dynamic toe-off. It also works in tandem with the new rubber foaming and Hybrid GEL™ technology to help create smoother underfoot transitions.

Consistent Running Shoe
I have been running in the Gel-Cumulus for years. It is consistent as a well built and comfortable shoe. I do alternate two pairs of shoes each week as I run four days a week.

Poor Quality - No customer service!
Been an Asics fan for over 40 years - I'm done. After a decade of watching Asics quality fade, I gave Asics 'one last try'. With less than two months and 40 miles on the shoe, the bottom is vanishing. I agree with COFly Girls' review; the bottom looks like pencil eraser shavings. This is happening to mine as well. It seems to be a premature wear issue. It is definitely a shoe manufacturing defect. The toe box is tight. Causes foot rotation into supination and will cause ankle pain/injury. The mesh causes foot slippage and no ankle support. Asics needs to support this shoe, stand behind it, and offer refunds or exchanges.

Perfect walking/jogging shoe
I absolutely love the GEL-NIMBUS 25! This model fits my feet perfectly, providing support for long walks, jogs, and runs.

DO NOT spend $5 on these shoes! Cheaply made!
ZERO RATING! DO NOT buy the new Gel-Kinsei Max! $180 and after less than 50 miles the tread looks like shredded pencil eraser shavings. Asics refuses to acknowledge the tread wear as 'defective', nor will offer a refund. I have purchased Asics high-end Kinsei and Kayano's for 3 decades. I started purchasing the retro shoes, because Asics wants to mirror Hoka's overly cushioned and ugly wedge shoes. Asics must have caught on that the customer is buying the retro shoes, and now upped them to over $200! Come on, Asics! Do better Asics! Asics Customer service is non-existent, and the shoes are crapola. DO NOT waste your money. I tried adding a picture for your judgement, but Asics will not allow pictures. Puzzling? You are going downhill Asics - running downhill.

Excellent Cushion but Won't Work for Metatarsalgia
I think these have wonderful cushion and would be fantastic for many people. Unfortunately for me, they just put too much pressure on the ball of my foot near my toes which is wear my metatarsalgia is killing me. I so wanted them to work for me. But again, I thing they'd be great for most humans!

Will never buy a pair of ASICS again!!!!
I got a pair and wore once and they killed my right heel leaving indenting in my heel. The left shoe was good, the right shoe was not. I wore them one more time to make sure I wasn't crazy. Same thing happened. think the right shoe was made incorrectly. Customer service for ASICS is a complete joke! I was taught the customer is always right. Not in these people's eyes. They did absolutely nothing!!! I never wanted my money back, I just wanted them to replace the right shoe. After going round and round with them, it got me nowhere. I now have new shoes I will never wear and out over $100. Do yourself a favor and don't ever buy a pair of ASICS again! I know I will NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Horrible!
Bought the white pair and wouldn't recommend if you want to use it on treadmill!! I'm sliding in them like crazy- can't return because are worn!! I had a black pair before and didn't have a problem. But the white ones are not the same- I think the sole material must be different! Horrible customer service, I used the shoe maybe 5 times with a total of maybe 10 miles because it's impossible to walk on tread in them!! Do yourself a favor and order Brooks instead! They provide excellent customer service!! My husband runs marathons and never had a problem with Brooks!
