My son is a runner and loves these shoes. They're comfortable and suitable for running right away, that is, no need to "break them in." They hold up to the wear and tear of everyday use. He likes wider shoes and these work for him.

Lots of cushion on the bottom of your feet. The wide cut (4E) made it nice to have toe room for a change in my running shoes; they always seem to be cut so narrow.

Comfortable running shoe that is great for the price. I primarily run on a treadmill and this shoe is very comfortable. I would say this shoe is for moderate runners like myself.

Good shoes for the prices, fairly comfortable and light with decent traction. These are not as light, comfortable or performance enhancing as some $100+ shoes I have owned but are a very good value. They look nice and as pictured as well. Shipping and order convenience by Zappos gets 5 stars, very quick and accurate.

Wonderful shoe for my wide feet. My only complaint is that the mesh gets dirty very easily.

I an a bike patrol officer at a university and I purchased these to try instead of a shoe designed just for biking. The sole so far have proven to be just as good as a shoe just for biking. These actually are working better for me because they are so much more comfortable for walking and standing, which is a large percentage of my work day with parking enforcement and traffic control. The gel shoes have been comfortable from day one with no break in. So far I would buy another pair.

I wanted a low-price shoe mostly for walking. This is not as good as higher level Asics Gel shoes, but it is as good as I expected and I am completely satisfied, especially with the lacing system. It's sizing is similar to what I've experienced with other Asics products, for me, this means I order 11 1/2 medium when my actual shoe size is 10 1/2 D.

Great shoes, great support. They are great for running, but I tried playing basketball in them and the high back heel gave me a blister, which didn't happen in my New Balances.

I have always worn New Balance shoes, until now. Many of my co-workers told me about Asics and I love them. Zappos made it so easy to order and I had my shoes in 3 days. I will order my wife some in the future and tell everyone about Zappos and Asics.

Have always been a New Balance guy and really like them still, but Asics are also great shoes for feet like mine, (short and very wide). This is my 2nd pair from Zappos and I have a 3rd on the way.

Love these shoes. These are very comfortable. I took a run today right out of the box, and they felt great. I workout at a crossfit gym, so there's not a lot of running, but my barefoot style shoes would give me shin splints on the days we ran or jumped rope. These are like walking on air compared to those. They fit true to size for me.

I got these ASICS for my son, 22, 6'2" about 230 lbs - active/athletic. He needs a stable heel, room for toes and for thicker winter socks. I ordered a half size larger; at first he thought there was too much room at the toes but the arch was in the right spot. After wearing them for two days or so they fit great. Just enough room at toes, not too much. He said the cushion is very comfortable, not stiff, and to be sure to get him ASICS next time.

These are awesome shoes! I suppose they are a downgrade from my Gel GT-2140s, but I really cannot tell the difference. I went with the same size at 11½ and they are perfect. They are my everyday/gym shoes. I love them. Thanks!

Great shoe and fully support my high arch. I normally run outside in the north east in all climates. This is a terrific shoe and has held up so far with great cushion.

Pleased overall, but find the shoe snug I would order up a half size. I feel I may have received a narrow as opposed to the medium that I ordered. I find that I must wear thin socks. Think about returning them at times.Hope they stretch into a little larger fit.Price and style were right!
