## Description

The ASICSGEL-EXCITE 8 shoe comfortably envelops the entire foot like a gentle hug. This design implies fewer layers of material, which results in a lightweight and breathable upper. It is recommended for runners who want a responsive standing experience while running. 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.

Review: New favorite! - I love these shoes so much! They look very good on my feet – I was specifically looking for white shoes as I feel more athletic in those (mind tricks, I know)... I like lifting, but I need some cardio in my training, and bits like this help me getting those in. It has more arch support than I expected (I had the Excite 7 before, but this was cheaper right now in my size), but it doesn't have a lot of cushion – hence the 4 stars. It has more drop and more cushion that I would tolerate for lifting, though, so I still keep this for my cardio workouts! Wouldn't recommend them for lower body heavy(-er) lifting! I have wide feet and it has a comfortable toe box to accommodate for that need! I usually wear 10-10.5 for running, but I use these in the gym exclusively (keeping them clean-er ;)), and for any other activities, most styles fit me in 9-9.5. I ordered 9.5 and they are perfect! All in all, I'd recommend these shoes, just be aware that you won't have the "walking on cloud" feeling.
Review: These are keepers - Buying online is so difficult and my foot has specific needs. Asiac’s guidelines helpful. I got the wide. Nice wide toe bed with support and padding for toes (many shoes lack!). excellent arch support. I’m not a runner but I’m on my feet for long hours working and walking outdoors. While not as comfortable used to wear Merrell Moab 2. Love the Vibram sole! but the company changed the footbed and it caused my much foot and knee pain. Now, I’ve yet to find a work boot or hiking shoe that offers comfort, stability and durability. Hoaka’s motorgoat 4 have worked well for about 8 months before started to break down. Also a bit heavier than these. These are much less expensive, lighter and comfortable. I’ll be happy to get a good 6 months with these. great shoes for walking and wearing all day. Wish Asiac would make a more durable farm shoe with Vibram soles!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable running shoe.
*by M***R on July 1, 2024*

I bought this shoe because for whatever reason unknown to me I tend to get shin splints when I run or walk. I decided to trust a review that said it helped them with this problem and it has help mine. This shoe is the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. It provides support in the right places. I don't get shin splints anymore and it absorbs shock well from any exercise that I may do. I wear this shoe everyday a couple hours for exercising. I also wear it on the weekends or days when I have lots of errands and I need a comfortable shoe for all day wear. I even like it for when I have to sit and drive for hours. After 2 years it has held up well and looks pretty much like new despite it being lived in pretty much
