This is my third pair of these shoes, after return after return, after return. The rear soles on all three four pairs of shoes that I received fell apart within a month. On one occasion, the heel pads fell off in less than a week. Called Amazon (they were awesome), and they are considering taking this product, from the seller, off the Amazon market.<br /><br />Its a shame, because I REALLY like these shoes AND Asics. But for the price and the fact that I have used Asics for over 20 years, I am really upset over the whole situation. Considering trying another brand....ugh!
