Our Verdict

ASICS METASPEED EDGE TOKYO

ASICS YOGIRI SPEED

The ASICS METASPEED EDGE TOKYO is a much more aggressive racing shoe than the ASICS YOGIRI SPEED. Get the EDGE TOKYO if you're aiming for a marathon time around three hours; consider the YOGIRI SPEED if you anticipate a finish time closer to four hours or longer.
