Strengths: Good wide comfortable fit, grwat cushioning, no blisters after long runs
Weaknesses: Colour scheme for a 14 year old skateboarder not a runner. Asics should remember their target market. Feels a bit too roomy in the forefoot upper compared to the Nimbus VI
Overall: Disappointed that a great shoe is being ruined by increasingly ridiculous colour schemes. The 2006 version of this shoe is appalling.
