We say: Our Shoe Lab tests showed that the updated 1120 is softer underfoot than previous versions. This can be attributed to a new layer of foam under the sockliner that improves the shoe's feel right out of the box. Asics reinforced the 1120's midfoot bridge to better control overpronation. The upper uses a mesh panel near the base of the big toe to accommodate a wider range of foot widths. Recommended for normal-arched runners looking for a comfortable trainer or for runners with low arches who want a race-day shoe.
Wear-testers say: "Great cushioning, outstanding for long runs." --Ronald Izewski, 49, Allentown
"A very stable shoe on and off road." --George Tubon, 39, San Diego

Very good overall shoe. Loses cushioning quicker than other shoes that I have worn, but the fit is superb. .
