I hope this asics gel shoes has answered some of your questions. I hope it has helped some of the other bloggers out there to understand that we are not the great evil, and we put a huge amount of time effort and money into trying to make running a safer sport for everyone. That is my one and only goal. Farnkly. I really never go into any project thinking "how many pairs of shoes will this sell" you might not believe that but it really is true sales just  aint my bag regards SimonWhere is your evidence that "it" isn't broken? Show me a study that show running injuries decreasing because of "20 years of progressive development." You can't.

This is how it has always been so we shouldn't change" is another way of saying your company is not interested in innovation. They used to think that blood letting helped get rid of disease. They continued the practice until someone came up with a safer and more effective way. I know why you continue to insist that asics gel venture 6 mens the way it's always been done is the best way because that's the way it's always been done, but do you think that maybe, just maybe, there may be something worth exploring in this minimalist movement you continue to demand proof from? Does it bother you at all that you don't have "proof" for your "side" either? I asics gel torrance would submit that the current state of the running shoe market is "broken," if for no other reason that there is not enough variety.

Luckily there are companies such as Merrell, Saucony, New Balance, and Nike (sort of) who are trying to "fix" it by offering more and more "minimalist" shoe choices. Will Asics follow suit (a couple of old shoe styles don't really count)? For your livelihoods sake I hope so.Maybe this debate comes down to each individual or company's definition of "progressive". You may feel that Asics is progressive because the running shoe line is "updated" regularly. It seems to me that the updates are driven more by marketing than science. That is my opinion asics gt 2000 6 womens as a consumer.

By the way Simon, since you're calling for evidence, where is your evidence that the high-heeled, high-cushioned, highly "supportive" shoes you are pushing prevent injury or even help the runner in any way? And the argument that "if it ain't broke& " doesn't hold any weight since there aren't any studies that today's platformed heel running shoe prevent injuries in any way. I'm thinking that the only thing those shoes are good for is to help prevent heel fractures when heel-striking. Just one runners opinion. Not that consumer opinion counts, right Simon? Oh, and even if you weren't supposedly speaking for Asics, if you represent yourself as an Asics researcher then, to the minds of the audience, you are speaking for Asics.

I bought a pair of Saucony Kenvara 2 in size 11 yesterday (that's about a half size bigger than I normally wear). They don't come in wide widths, none of the minimalist shoes they had seemed to (I'm wearing a EEEE in my Asics). The guy at the running store said that I do pronate a bit, but that doesn't mean it's a problem and it doesn't mean I'm benifiting from the support shoes. He advised me to keep an open mind while transitioning and perhaps even try using my superfeet inserts in the Kenvaras during the transition. The thing he seemed to stress the most was to only run no more that 10% of my weekly miles in the Kenvaras at first.

As a minimalist runner myself, I feel sometimes asics gt 2000 4 women's almost bad about selling heavily cushioned motion control shoes for lightweight people with only slight overpronation, but if someone comes to store and says "My doctor/physiotherapist told me to get a shoe with a lot of cushion and pronation support", who am I to tell that he's wrong? Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. Then I just sell the Asics Kayanos or Mizuno Nirvanas and hope for the best. And mention, that we also sell Vibram FiveFingers, which may help strengthen the feet. (They are becoming really popular in Finland, actually they are our best selling product at the moment.)
