    I like the shoe; unfortunately, I ordered my regular size but when I actually wore them for the first time I should have ordered a half-size up.

    I usually wear an 8, but these were way too small. I was considering exchanging for a size up, but the style is just not that cute, so I'm going to keep looking.

    I found these shoes to be very comfortable. The only draw back is the toes are a little tight. Especially on the right foot. The front is more narrow and pointed then most similar shoes. They look great.

    As always I received my order within a couple of days. I love my new Asics. Have worn this brand for years. I have wide feet, and I seldom have an issue with Asics which run a little wider then the normal sneakers.

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    ASICS® was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote sports. In fact, ASICS is an acronym from the famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which translates, "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Originating in Kobe, Japan over fifty years ago, ASICS shoes and ASICS clothing were introduced to the United States in 1977. Throughout the years and running beyond today, the ASICS philosophy imparts an incredible story of athletic performance and technical advancements.

    ASICS shoes, apparel and bags are produced in a wide assortment to meet the needs of men, women and kids. ASICS has produced products filled with technological designs and features such as the revolutionary ASICS® GEL® Cushioning System. The ASICS® GEL-NIMBUS® and ASICS® GEL-KAYANO® running shoes have benefited from such innovation and have enhanced the running experience for so many ASICS mens and ASICS womens aficionados. So on any given day, a runner can get fitted from head to toe with ASICS running clothes and ASICS running shoes. A feat Kihachiro Onitsuka would be very proud of to this day.

    Running is one focus for this brand as ASICS produces products for training, volleyball, wrestling, track & field, cheerleading and field sports. ASICS kids shoes and ASICS kids clothing are made for the younger athletic market. Rounding out the brand’s product offering are ASICS bags to help meet the demands of your sporting desires.

    To date, ASICS continues to put forth quality tested products designed to stand the rigors of elite and amateur athletes alike. Willing to try something new, and always staying ahead of the curve is how ASICS manages to stay true to it's namesake.

    Not only comfortable, but I firmly believe it has improved my game! I find the shoe to be lighter weight than I had been wearing, and the sole provides the perfect amount of traction for stopping short on the court.

    Comfy all-around sneaker, has moderate ankle support, but I use an ankle support, which really firms up my one weak ankle; result of a stroke. My gait feels more balanced even without my brace.

    I should have heeded the advice I read in the reviews. For me, the shoe is a half size too small and I\'m returning it. I was also surprised at the color. I thought the photo and the color name referred to a nice silvery gray. It is actually metallic silver.

    I love Asics! They are the only brand of athletic shoe that fits me dependably. I can always use more arch support, which is why I indicated "moderate" in the arch support section; it's me, not the shoe. I'm wearing these for hospital work and they are fabulous! Try them for yourself - you won't be disappointed.

    I absolutely these tennis shoes! However they do run a bit small so I ordered a 7½ and I usually wear a 6½. They are light and comfortable and ordering through Zappos was a breeze and they provided overnight at no cost. It was easier than running around town trying to find a pair!

    I love these court shoes. The fit is good but I would size up a half size and a B was perfect for medium foot. I live in a hot climate and the shoes felt great and cool on the court. The support is good. After playing tennis once with these shoes, I ordered another pair and stashed them away for the future.

    I like the style, but I need a wide toe area shoe. In the video and pic I thought it would be great, but it was too tight and narrow. I wear a size 11, so I bought a size 11 1/2 still seemed too tight around the laces even though I loosened them, but the comfort of the soul was great, just too tight for me. Hope this helps.
