Product Details
Drawing inspiration from the renowned Shibuya cross-street, the GEL-KINSEI™ OG Modern Tokyo sneaker is also symbolic of the dedicated ASICS spirit that continues to redefine the future of design. Uniting Japanese heritage and craftsmanship with modern mechanical design, this silhouette draws inspiration from a samurai’s armor – shielding the body, while enabling it to move freely. The angled GEL® technology cushioning unit in the heel references the shape of the samurai’s curvaceous katana sword to better attenuate the severity of shock upon heel strike. Presenting TRUSSTIC™ SYSTEM technology under the sole’s arch to improve stability, this feature also lessens the shoe’s overall weight. Resurrected with visible evolution and a contemporary design, the GEL-KINSEI™ OG Modern Tokyo sneaker allows you to wear this shoe as a heritage icon that's still technical even by today's standards.
Pronation
Pronation is part of the natural movement of the human body and refers to the way your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The GEL-KINSEI OG MODERN TOKYO is made for Neutral.

Worst Asics I ever owned
I am an Asics guy and this poor shoe won't stop me, this this shoe is the worst one I have had yet for the price I paid. For the first time I though I would splurge and go for a higher end shoe. But after three months I am ready to shelf this one already, it's just not comfortable and doesn't want to get that broken in feel.

Overall great version of the Kinsei with drawbacks
Great looking shoes but a bit more stiff in the upper materials then the other versions. Also, the toe box is transparent and you can see your socks through the toe; great for cooling, but a bit weird for street wear.

Kinsei's are back!
These are the same as the Kinsei 6s from years ago, and are just as perfect as those were (except they have better color designs). If anything, they seem less prone to the toe tearing. Even down to the "flat" shoelaces, this is a well-designed shoe.

Need better design in the tongue of the shoe
The tongue of this show is poor design. Had to return.
The tongue is like plastic and has no loop for the lace to go through and assist in keeping in place. Aside from the or design, it is uncomfortable and wrinkles throughout, making it near unbearable. Just trying them on was bad. Would not attempt to walk in them at all.

Plastic tongue no so good
Like the shoe with the exception of the plastic tongue. Not a fan of that.

Uncomfortable
Nice looking shoe but uncomfortable. Tongue is hard to get in place and folds up. Front half of shoe is cheaply made.

Finally like they used to be...
Feel more like the classic style of Gel Kinsey version 4 and earlier which I was hoping for. Feel more rigid and robust like they were when I first fell in love with them!
