Thanks for the video! I went with the GL3 as I dig the split tongue. The size you mentioned to the ultraboost is spot on.

I dig both shoes but I think I have to give the 5s an upper hand on the silhouette! I've never owned a pair of Asics before and have always admired from afar, but they have definitely been coming up in terms of their designs and colorways. I like that tip on matching your socks with the inner sole though -- I've never thought about that before 🔥 🔥 then again my socks are either no shows or black Nike mid-calves lol

Gel Lyte iii for me. The Vs have a slightly narrower toe box and the sockliner has been done to death by other companies. I prefer the roominess coupled with the cushion of the GL3. More collabs too for GL3. The split tongue is that little thing that sets them apart. 🙂

Makes sense, that’s probably why I slightly prefer the comfort of the 5s over the 3s. Thanks!

Just copped my first pair about a month ago. Me being a nike sb og fan and coming out if retirement with sneakers that I dont have to wait on long lines for. My GOD I love the gel lyle III. I wasn't sure if I got them too small cause my socks are exposed a bit when rocking yet they dont feel tight. I think for future pairs might do a half size up. Gottacheck out the gel lyle V now because of you. Amazing vid bro keep up the content.

Haha yeah man. As we get older, it isn’t as much about the hype anymore as as the convenience and accessibility of getting what you like. I’m glad you like the GRIIIs, but yeah, most people recommend 1/2 sizing up. If you’re into the sock-like fitting sneakers, then you’ll love the Vs. Thanks for stopping by and leaving an insightful comment!

Great detailed comparison review! Both really good looking kicks, but not sure how I feel about the split tongue design of the 3’s. Either way, ASICS makes some top quality sneakers, & I’ve always liked the brand. PS: You just reminded me that I have a few pairs of the ASICS Kinsei I bought a few years ago that I have to finally start wearing! Hands down some of the most comfortable sneakers I’ve ever owned.

I remember seeing the asics with the double tongue for the first time and thought it was so weird, but then the 2nd i put it on I thought it was so revolutionary lol. They have some dope shoes, and this might be a hot take, but I do think it's up to par with the comfortability of ultraboosts

Asics have been my goto runners for years. I tried nike, brooks, adidas, and new balance but they just fall apart too fast. Thanks for the review, I opted for the Vs for my first pair of casual asics. Amazon had a pair stone grey/blush with some delicate kanji detailing that really caught my eye for a type of shoe I don’t typically wear.

I'm interested in the Gel-Lyte V, but am having trouble finding a place with one to try on. I'm a 9.5 in my Onitsuka Mexico 66s, Vans Sk8-Hi's and Authentics, and 9 in my Stan Smiths. Do you have any of those that I can compare for sizing relative to yours? I'm probably a 9.5, but I have been a 10 in some shoes. Thanks!
@kickitwithdang

You can probably go with 9.5 . I wear 9.5 both Stan smith and asics, but asics runs more snug with a sock like fit. Size up to 10 if you want more room 👍 good luck!

True to size or half size up? Does both shoes have firm midsole? Like nike air max 90 firm feel?

I think 1/2 size up is a safer bet . And yes midsole responsiveness is fairly similar to AM90, although I’d say that these asics are a little softer and lower to the ground

As to sizing, if you know your Adidas size in UK, buy the same in most Asics shoes. All my III are UK12. In Adidas that is 12.5US, in Asics 13US. I have 10 pairs of IIIs, Kayano 21s, Nandi OG, 1030, Quantums, all 13US. Out of all of them, probably the Quantums are just a bit larger, i.e. longer, 1-2mm longer to be precise, so those are the only ones someone can size 1/2 down, IMO. The Vs are a completely different beast. I feel like they run probably 1/4 to 1/2 size down. The 13s press a bit on my big toe, and I find that very uncomfortable, it's just the way the shoe is structured, so going 1/2 size up would be best, unfortunately there is no 13.5US, it goes to 14, and that is too big for me. The Vs look absolutely stunning though, I love the silhouette, too bad I can not fit in it property.

I agree, adidas UN fit pretty close to most ASICS. I have not tried the Quantums or Kayanos models yet, but definitely interested one of these days. I personally enjoy the Vs for casual wear and they fit great for me, but everyone’s feet are different I suppose haha. Thanks for the insightful comment!

@@kickitwithdang The Kayano 21 is an absolutely stunning looking shoe. The 14 is also a beauty, the new 14 RE is straight 🔥. The Quantums look nice, they have this "techy" vibe to them and are very comfortable, close to Ultraboost in comfort (i find the early pureboosts more comfortable than the original ultraboost, so there is that). The IIIs are my favorite still (just because they fit great on my feet). If you love the IIIs and and Vs, may I suggest the Saucony Shadows, the Diadora S8000, V7000, N9000, and Le Coq Sportif any of the R models and Kangaroos R1s. All awesome looking shoes, albeit for a more refined taste, outside of the typical hypebeast culture. Sidenote: I'm a big Adidas ZX and EQT fan, I always found most of the ZXs to be very comfortable and stylish and I'm happy adidas is retroing a lot of them.

Iliyan I am very much interested in trying all those ASICS models in the future 👍 I have a handful of Sauconys (shadow 5000, 6000, grid 9000, Azura) and I like them all also . Diadora N9000 are also great . Thanks for the recs! I’m always looking for lesser known models and sneakers that have less hype behind them 👍

I am also a 9.5 in Jordan 1s and NB550s. You can size up to 10 on these ASICS, especially if you have a wider foot. You can get away with TTS at 9.5 if you have narrow feet 👍 hope this helps!
