The Good Stuff
Running Trials
One beginner runner was able to try all the shoes on a treadmill before buying, making the choice more practical than relying on appearance alone.
Orthotic Fitting
A review describes several tennis models being tried with orthotic insoles to accommodate a daughter’s heel pain and achieve a proper fit.
Product Guidance
Customers report clear explanations of differences between models, including their intended use, comfort and performance.
Running Support
The team has helped shoppers select long-run shoes and a marathon pair, rather than treating every running purchase as the same.
Sports Range
Reviews mention sports shoes and clothes in current styles, with pricing considered fair relative to the reported quality.
Tips for a Better Visit
Request Scanning. Ask whether a foot scan or gait analysis is available before choosing a running shoe; reviews show it can guide the fit and stability choice.
Try Treadmill. If you are new to running, ask to try the shoes on a treadmill before paying, since one shopper tested every pair this way.
Check Stock. Call or check availability first if you need to take the shoes home immediately; one customer was offered delivery after a 1–2 day wait.
Bring Orthotics. Take your orthotic insoles with you when trying tennis shoes so the fit can be checked with the inserts in place.
Compare Models. Ask for the differences between models and their intended use, particularly when choosing between pairs with different support or performance roles.

The Bottom Line
ASICS in Downtown Dubai is a sportswear store for athletic shoes, apparel and accessories, with reviews particularly focused on running footwear. Shoppers have used foot scans and gait analysis to narrow down suitable shoes, then tried pairs on a treadmill before buying. That is useful if you are a beginner, training for a long run or unsure whether you need a stability model.
The product examples are specific: customers mention the GEL-KAYANO 32 for stability, Gel nimbus 26 for comfort and durability, and Magic Speed 5 for the Dubai Marathon. Another review describes trying several tennis shoes with orthotic insoles for a child with heel pain, so fitting support can matter here beyond simply finding a size. Service is not completely consistent.
Many shoppers describe patient explanations and careful fitting, but others report staff declining gait analysis, refusing to explain model differences or leaving them waiting for an hour before discovering damaged shoes. Stock can also be patchy: one customer was told to wait 1–2 days for home delivery and found the display selection limited. If you need a particular pair immediately, check availability first; if you are returning an online purchase, allow for possible courier delays.
