ÿþI also agree converse white that the shoe fitting process is stuffed, but as Kevin points out in another comment, it's not easy to offer alternatives, and I realize this. But, because alternatives are hard does not mean we should be content with the status quo when studies do suggest that basing shoe type almost exclusively off of things like arch height and pronation does not seem to be of any benefit to the runner. ASICS may not use the terms neutral, stability, and motion control, but I can assure you that shoe stores still use these categories, and runners are still fit to Asics shoes based upon them (my wife was).

There seems to be a lot of animosity toward ASICS, but not a lot of understanding of what the company does other than sell shoes let me start here biomechanics, either for the better or the worse (or maybe not at all), biomechanists should be at the forefront of all converse black design decisions at ASICS they are to the extent, that we outsource our research to about 6 diffrent universities, as well as using our own facility in Kobe Japan. the reason we do this which is quite unique, is that we want t eliminate any bias i our research converse high tops and make sure we really do get an answer to our research question.

the reason the marketers pulled the pin, is not because of the product or the company, but because the consumer just would not acept the look of it it looked funny, and although like the Nike footscape, it was ahead of it's time, the marketplace was not ready for it or accepting of it so it did not sell. The marketers then had to ake a commercial decision, which is a reality of business. "I have heard that many good designers who are biomechanically oriented have left the business because they converse black high tops get frustrated by marketing departments.

Biomechanics and science should be forefront  build the best product for the runner based on sound science as you suggest that really IS what we do it is the only way it can work. "I do realize that products have to sell, but sometimes maybe taking a risk on a novel product is worth it because it's the right thing to do" Pete a part of my job is to try to identify injury trends in the community, and then see if I can design a research project to understand why that is happening. Sometimes it results in shoe technology that helps, sometime is has nothing to do with shoes.

The study looked at the effect of circulating oestragen on tendon complance and neuromotor control, with the premise that high concentrations of oestragen if female athletes would increase tendon compliance (make them stretchier) and also impair motorskilss a double whammy for a female athlete. What we were able to discover was that high concentrations of oestragen increased tendon compliance at about day 14 of the menstrual cycle, and low levels reduced motor skills.

Therefore I do not require any "correcting" or extra support devices in the shoe. All I really want is a little cushion and protection from converse trainers abrasion and puncture. Also, I don't really want a "driving" or "casual" style shoe such as the Tiger. Since I've already adjusted to little to no heel lift I'd like a shoe with a 0-4mm heel lift, and that eliminates the Pirahna. It has been stated earlier (by Scott Abenoki Brown) that Asics may market more minimal style shoes in Japan. If true, do those include models beside the Tiger or Pirrhana? Are they geared toward recreational runners (I don't want racing flats either)? If so, is there any way to get those other models in the States? Thank you for your help.
