I stepped right into heaven. Lightweight, great fit, and amazingly comfortable. I have a hard time finding comfy footwear so I plan to get more while they last!

Light as air; a good summer lightweight shoe. It felt true to size and no break-in time. The white with bright orange was a pleasant break from the normal dark color Keens I always order.

Asics is my go-to brand, but I didn't love these shoes. Ran a little narrow, and had no real "padding" whatsoever in the sole.

Love these shoes. Great for Zumba, lifting, and treadmill. Overall great cross trainer. The colors are great and trendy. They fit really nicely and are excellent for lateral movement. I'm getting a second pair as the cushioning is wearing with all of my activity.

I use this shoe for Zumba class - excellent! The sole is smooth enough to turn/pivot easily, and it is very supportive, even for my flat feet.

These are really cute shoes! I use them for cross-training (strength and cardio classes). They fit well and are easy to keep clean.

Love this shoe. I just bought my second pair and am waiting for my size in a 3rd color. I teach group fitness classes; these are a great cross trainer good for several formats. The bright colors are awesome. Zappos, please stock more color combos. I wear a 7 in street shoes. In all my Asics I wear a 7 1/2 . Asics is my favorite brand and I have several different styles. This style is a little more narrow than I am used to. However, I loosened the laces and they are very comfortable.

Love the gel footbed for the support and cushion. Some slippage in the toe area, but as long as I lace them snugly I do OK. They function well for Jazzercise.

Great shoe! The colors are awesome and I get lots of compliments on them. I have a flat foot so I will likely have to replace the insoles for more support but overall this is an awesome shoe! I use this for spin class, body conditioning and hip hop...very multi functional.

Love this shoe! I teach four Zumba classes per week and this is the most comfortable shoe I have worn so far. Great arch support, great stability, just the right amount of traction on the sole!

Just wore these for Zumba and it was not a fun experience! To put my review in context, I have a very bony, narrow, size 11NN foot. When people complain that a sneaker is too narrow, I know I may have a shot with it. This one is particularly roomy in the toebox and they are overall big looking. I'm looking for a replacement to the wonderful Asics Plexus I've worn out this year.

I love these shoes! I got the Maui blue and lime color and wore it to the gym tonight for Step and got four compliments before I had left. I wear a size 9½ and have medium width flat feet. I take classes at the gym five times per week including Turbo Kick, Pilates, Step, Cycle, Yoga, Zumba, R.I.P.P.E.D and Tabata and these shoes are a great replacement for the Adidas that I had worn out. I cannot wait to test the performance of these shoes in my other classes!

Totally love these shoes. I use them for Jazzercise and they work perfectly. I will buy them again and again.

I didn't get what the purpose of this shoe was supposed to be. It's cute and comfortable, but didn't have enough cushion for aerobics and jumping, it's certainly not a running shoe, and it didn't have enough lateral support for step and balance work. I love Asics but this shoe seems to have no purpose. Could be a cute "running around" shoe I guess.

I love the color of these shoes and maybe in a half size bigger they would be perfect, but something has changed with Asics sizing. I have 2 pair of older Asics shoes, both 7.5 (my usual size). Ordered these in a 7.5 and they are too small. Arch support seemed a little off too, maybe just because the shoes are too small? Shoes seem a bit too snug all over and I'm not sure all that can be attributed to the smaller size. Very different fit than what I'm used to with Asics. Awesome looking, try 1/2 bigger.

I have worn the Asics Gel Kayana for years, so thought I would try this shoe for my combo strength and cardio classes that I teach. I found this shoe to be a bit stiff, and also narrower than the Kayana. Great look, though, especially for summer. I think if you don't need a wide toe-box, this shoe would be great!

I recently purchased the Grey and Pink Asics Gel-Ipera. I have worn them to 3 Zumba classes with 3 different types of floors. They are super light and I love the way they look, Zumbalicious. They are very comfortable lots of heel support. Very true to size. Breathable material. Love it, no more hot feet. I have tried these on carpet...not bad, but my Nike work better for carpet. The Y gym floor seemed to work great and the last floor is a little more rubbery and no complaints here. I really love these shoes for Zumba. I also have Nike Musique IV, and I added a Spenco Insole and I love them too.

Fantastic colors and love the look. Not extremely comfortable and supportive on my feet...expected more from Asics. I will probably try to get insoles to make it work. Shoes are great for everyday wear or minor work out. I do high aerobics (kick boxing, zumba, and step aerobics) and they are lacking cushioning for that.
