	Adidas Gigaride A3 Adidas Gigaride A3 has an outsole that maintains integrity regardless of temperature. The shoes come with a comfortable seam-free fit technology and a molded EVA sockliner. The forefoot is built for long-lasting luxury and functionality.	ASICS Gel Nimbus 10 The ASICS Gel Nimbus 10 is a running shoe with special cushioning technology that adds stability to your run. The lightweight midsole delivers comfort and durability, and the show comes with the IGS system that provides smoother rides.
Comfort: Running is a shock (impact) intensive sport. Running shoes usually have some mechanism for shock absorption, protecting your feet and allowing you to run further and for longer periods of time.	For most runners, the shoes are very comfortable, and provide good cushioning. The material they are made of is breathable - this is important to prevent overheating of the feet. Many runners who had hill spurs or knee and lower leg injuries feel that the Gigaride's cushioning reduces impact on the knees. Many runners commented that the shoe has a narrow structure, and that it fits quite tight. As a result, for feet that are wider than regular, you might want to look for wider models. Only a few runners feel that there is not enough arch support or that shock absrption is not ideal, and some commented that the structure of the sole may not make these shoes suitable for non-running activities.	The Gel Nimbus normally provide great cushioning and are very comfortable and stable. Several runners commented that these are the most comfortable for runners whose feet pronate while running, while some wider footed runners complained that the toe box can feel a bit narrow. Many runners reported that the shoes "feel new" for longer compared with other shoes, and for very few, heel blisters were a problem.
Lightweight: It is usually better for running shoes to be as lightweight as possible. However, this often means less support, less cushioning and perhaps shorter lifespan.	While not as lightweight as other models, most users feel that the Gigaride are lightweight and good for training.	At 10.6oz (300g), these shoes are pretty lightweight for most people.

Design and style: How will you look in these shoes?	The A3 Gigaride look stylish and cool for streetwear as well as running or for the gym.	The design and style of these shoes are not their strong points.
Durability: How long will this shoe last for you? How do the shoes behave under repeated wear?	Many runners commented that the shoes last as expected and do not lose their cushioning as they age. This is due to Adidas's special technology and seam-free manufacture.	These shoes are usually considered as durable as any other shoes in their category. This means that they will usually last for about 300-350 miles. The shoes are extremely stable, and only few people find that they do not hold for as long as they would expect.
Low Cost: How much can you expect to pay for the shoes? As a rule of thumb, running shoes should be replaced every 300-400 miles. If you plan to run a lot, price may become an important factor.	The A3 gigaride are very cheap.	The Asics Gel-Nimbus 10 are relatively pricey.However, not to the point of being unaffordable.
Support: How much support does the shoe provide you with? Will you be able to use orthodics if you need them?	The shoes provide very good support for most people, yet they manage to still be comfortable. Many runners who experienced injuries or tenderness in the knees, ankles or feet feel that the shoes support them well and prevent additional damage. Note that for runners with higher arches, orthodics or inserts may be required.	Most runners who bought these shoes reported them to have very good support. For many, these were the most comfortable shoes on the market for someone with normal to mild pronation. The shoes are a very good choice for feet with fairly high arches which are wide at the toe but narrow at the heels. The sturdy support may, in some rare cases, give you heel blisters.
