4 1/2 stars for a great workout sneaker
ASICS Womens GEL Blur Cross Training US
I have FINALLY found the perfect light-weight cross-trainer with great stability. I work out at home and do a lot of "boot camp" programs involving jumping, lateral moves, and such. I tried and sent back four other pairs of cross-trainers before finding and ordering these. Love how lightweight and breathable they are so my feet stay cool, and I don't feel like I have bricks on my feet weighing me down when jumping. Yet they have fantastic stability in the sides to support and prevent rolling during my moves. Stability is critical for me in a shoe as I experienced a severe ankle sprain last year that took 6 months to recover from, and I need the support to prevent future injury. Note the TR in the name as this indicates it has more stability for cross-training. There are other Gel-Blur33 shoes that don't have this designation and don't have the same level of support and stability in the shoe as they are running shoes versus cross-trainers. I found these to be very true to size. I wear a size 8 in regular sandals and heels and ordered the same size in these trainers. I highly recommend this shoe.

These shoes are for you if you are going to do high intensity, lateral movements, lots of jumping,and squating kind of workout. I am currently doing insanity/asylum and they have been great for my feet. Love them!
I have really flat feet and needed shoes with arch support. These have that and are really lightweight. They have handled all the motions of kickboxing and other fast paced, circuit training exercises. Highly recommend for great workout shoe.
I wanted to get a new pair of shoes for alternating workouts of weight training and cardio. After reading a fitness magazine review of cross-training shoes, I decided to order the highly rated ASIC Blur 33 and I'm so glad I did!! They fit perfectly, are super lightweight, comfortable and they are super cute!! Initially, I wasn't sure I liked how bright the lavender looked from the picture but once I saw them in person, the grey really balances out the brightness of the lavender and I love it. These shoes are perfect for what I was looking for!
I BOUGHT THESE SHOES ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF OTHERS AND LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM! THEY ARE GREAT FOR HIGH-IMPACT AEROBICS!!!!
This is a great shoe for working out indoors. I love wearing them while doing my DVD workouts, Wii and Xbox workouts. They have excellent arch support with a well cushioned foot bed, which is great for jumping and bouncing. They also are very well ventilated, which help to keep my feet cool. The traits that make them especially great for indoor workouts are that they are light, flexible and the tread works well on carpeted surfaces. I absolutely love the yellow and orange color! So very glad I made this purchase!
I Love these sneakers!As a personal trainer I do A LOT of plyometrics mixed with weights. These are perfect for lateral moves, squats, mountain climbers, sprints etc... I own 2 pair! will get a third!
