Asics Gel-Blur 33 – RW Best Buy

Asics Gel-Blur 33 is chosen as Runner’s World Besy Buy for Fall 2011. This was announced in the September 2011 issue of Runner’s World Magazine US. The Gel-Blur 33 costs only 85 USD and packs a lot of features making it a great value for money.

Asics Gel Blur is inspired by the 33 joints on the foot.  Blur 33 is part of the new 33 by ASICS collection which comes in lightweight, minimalist styles that allow natural foot movement.

Runner’s World says, “This capable new shoe delivers a terrific balance of value and comfort, thanks to its well-cushioned foam and Gel midsole. Despite its minimal looks, the Blur isn’t thin-soled or level enough for the barefoot crowd.”
