My first foray into one of ASICS’ flagship pairs wasn’t until the 25th edition; it was love at first run. At the time, I had never run in such a comfy shoe, both underfoot and with its super-cozy upper. The shoe was a pleasure to run in, and pampered my tired legs during marathon training. But the pair fell out of favor, as more and more max cushion offerings entered the fray over the past couple years. Now that it’s back on my radar—and feet—after a brief hiatus, how has the ride of this max cushion shoe aged?
